Ukrainian Refugee Council: “The EU-Ukraine Readmission Agreement — MYTHS, FACTS AND RISKS”

During the last few months the Ukrainian media have been actively discussing the possible consequences of the implementation of the EU-Ukraine Readmission Agreement. Unfortunately, these discussions, on the whole, have not been carried out at a professional level. Furthermore, sometimes they result in xenophobia: a fear of foreigners in general and of asylum seekers in particular. The Ukrainian Refugee Council urges the media to discuss the real changes that might be brought about by the implementation of this Agreement and is concerned on certain issues regarding refugees' and asylum seekers' rights.
