Justice and Home Affairs Council<\/b><\/span> <\/p>\n

\tH\u00e9l\u00e8ne Flautre, <\/b>European deputy of the Greens\/European Free Alliance (EFA), as well as numerous Euro deputies from other political groups within the European Parliament, have addressed an open letter to the Ministers\u00a0 of Home Affairs of the Member States of the EU, in view of their meeting of the Justice and Home Affairs Council (JHA) on the 9 and 10 of June.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\tFollowing the visit to the European Parliament by a delegation of Tunisian migrants who had arrived on European soil via Lampedusa Island, the deputies are solemnly requesting that an end is brought to the precarious and humiliating situation of these people during the meeting of the EFA council, by activating Directive 55\/2011, which provides temporary protection in the event of a mass influx of displaced persons.<\/span><\/p>\n

\t\u00a0Open letter to European deputies<\/b> to the Ministers of Home Affairs of the EU Member States<\/b> in view of the JHA council meeting of the 9<\/b><\/span>th<\/sup><\/b><\/span> and 10<\/b><\/span>th<\/sup><\/b><\/span> June.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\tThis Wednesday 8th June, we received a delegation of Tunisians to the European Parliament, who arrived on European soil via Lampedusa Island as of the 14<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span> January. They request, on behalf of the 25,000 Tunisians who left Tunisia following the fall of Ben Ali’s regime, the activation of directive 55\/2001 which allows a temporary protection to be allocated in the event of a massive influx of displaced persons.<\/span><\/p>\n

\tThe accounts that we have heard provide grounds for the allocation of a temporary right to stay and work for these Tunisian people, particularly those who have came from the southeast of the country.\u00a0 This historically impoverished region has suffered badly from the fall in tourist and trans-border activity in the region, a direct consequence of the dramatic human and social consequences from the war in Libya.<\/span><\/p>\n

\tThese exceptional circumstances make returning to Tunisia particularly difficult in the short-term. At the same time, the temporary acceptance into the EU would provide a positive solution for all those concerned, who after having achieved freedom; simply want to have their right to dignity respected. This is imperative for themselves, for their family and friends, and to provide effective support to the democratisation process that is currently underway.<\/span><\/p>\n

\tThis is why, taking into account the fact that all the conditions for implementation are today fulfilled, we are asking you solemnly to put an end to the precarious and humiliating situation of these people during the meeting of the EFA council,\u00a0 by activating Directive 55\/2011providing temporary protection in the event of a mass influx.<\/span><\/p>\n

\tPlease accept our most sincere regards.<\/span><\/p>\n
