“We must accept more female refugees”
“of Liberals: That there are no legal escape routes to Europe punishes women the hardest”
“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”
“the DEBATE. War and oppression is horrific for those affected. Most most affected are often women. Their already limited freedom becomes more restricted, they are exploited and are the ones who have the least opportunity to escape. There are so few legal escape routes to Europe punishes, therefore, women the hardest. “
“to 68.5 million are in this moment, fleeing from persecution, repression, armed conflicts or natural disasters. Millions of people live in refugee camps which can be both lawless and dangerous. “
“the Situation of women is particularly vulnerable. Women are often exploited in exchange for food and forced to work in slave-like conditions. The man flees the light on and the women be left to take care of children and the elderly. “
“Child marriage increases sharply in connection with the war, since many of the girls on the run gets married in the hope that they’ll be powered by an older man. Vulnerability to sexual violence is huge.”
“Without legal escape routes to Europe, it is first and foremost the women who suffer. The UNHCR clearly shows that ”
“in Order to truly help women on the run, we need to receive them and we must do it in a way that is also safe for women.”
“► to receive more quota refugees in a common EUROPEAN system. War and violations of human rights are all cross-border problems. Therefore, can not be a solution to the palestinian refugee issue be national. Quota refugees may unlike other refugees in a safe and organized trip, and is a great way to ensure that more women can escape. 2017 took the 22 EU countries against 17 000 refugees, under the auspices of the UNHCR. There is still no common kvotflyktingsystem within the EU, but we welcome the ongoing work to get such a system in place. We want each member state to take its responsibilities and accommodate the displaced people. The EU really ought to be able to receive more than 17 000 refugees per year. “
“► Reinstatement of family reunification. The current, temporary law preventing families from being reunited. It is a tragedy for each individual affected family and also an aggravating factor negating the status of refugees, the establishment. We welcome the fact that the Liberals have been seen to family reunification is now offered to all with the right to international protection in Sweden. So families can be healed, establish themselves better and women who are often left in unsafe refugee camps can get a chance to get to safety.”
“► Facing asylvisum. Many risk their lives in dangerous journeys to Europe, but to get asylum when they come here. If people fleeing persecution might instead seek a visa on the Swedish and european embassies, in order to then seek asylum in Europe, could the suffering be minimized. In the day making visa to a person in need of asylum who are persecuted, for example, for their political opinions or sexual orientation are forced to get to Europe illegally, a system with asylvisum would be both more humane and more predictable.”
“We can not claim that we stand for women’s rights when at the same time we do so little for the women on the run. The liberal ideas of freedom and women’s rights should never stop at the borders of Europe. “
