Episode 34: Europe's ‘black sites’ & secret asylum-seeker pushbacks on commercial ships
In today's episode, we speak with Klaas van Dijken, one of the co-founders of the investigative journalism organisation Lighthouse Reports.
Klaas talks to us about two recent investigations he and his team worked on:
• How asylum seekers are held in secret prisons on commercial ships to facilitate illegal pushbacks from Italy to Greece, and
• How refugees are being arbitrarily detained and tortured at secret facilities along EU borders before being illegally forced back across borders.

Doro - Veränderungen und Notwendigkeiten auf den griechischen Inseln
De vrouw met de rode hoed - 'Stop the lies, stop the pushbacks!'
Journaliste Ingeborg Beugel moest een aantal weken geleden noodgedwongen uit Griekenland vertrekken. Tijdens een persconferentie stelde ze een kritische vraag over de vluchtelingencrisis aan premier Kyriakos Mitsotakis. Bedreigingen, een steen naar haar hoofd en intimidatie waren het gevolg. ‘Een ware heksenjacht’, volgens Ingeborg. Ze wil terug, maar het kan nog niet. Wat is er aan de hand in Griekenland? Hoe staat het ervoor met de persvrijheid in het land? In de podcast van deze week vertelt Ingeborg over haar redenen voor het stellen van de simpele vraag: when will you stop lying?

Hoe Loekasjenko duizenden migranten als speelbal gebruikt
Om Europa dwars te zitten, stuurt Wit-Rusland duizenden migranten de grens met Polen over. In het grensgebied is sinds augustus een noodtoestand afgekondigd, journalisten en hulporganisaties worden geweerd, waardoor het onduidelijk is wat zich daar afspeelt. Oost-Europacorrespondent Emilie van Outeren beschrijft de grote geopolitieke strijd die hieraan ten grondslag ligt, met migranten als levende wapens.

#137 Pushbacks: Wie die EU systematisch Flüchtlingsrechte verletzt
Revisited: No Name Kitchen - Update
For this re-released episode we've included our original interview, completed in late 2018, and we catch up with Bruno for a detailed update about his current work with No Name Kitchen. If you want to skip to the new interview from April 2021 it starts at: 43:43
Bruno Morán is from Asturias, Spain, and is a co-founder of No Name Kitchen, an NGO that provides food, sleeping bags, basic necessities, and a community space for refugees in transit along the Serbian and Bosnian borders with Croatia.
In addition to providing basic services, No Name Kitchen has also become a primary point of contact for those who have been pushed back from the Croatian border, and as a result the organization has found itself involved in documenting and sharing the growing number of reported abuses by the Croatian border police against those who are seeking to cross into the EU, people who have no legal means of registering themselves in bordering countries.
In this episode we cover what is happening on the ground, the practical challenges of running a small front line organization, and some advice on how you can get involved in global events in your community.
