Read Olga Tkach's text on the “touristification” of the anti-military protest movement in Russia and what it means to cross borders as a "tourist" today. raster.fi/2024/04/30/fleeing…

The clueless use of "hybrid warfare" to understand migration and asylum is extremely alarming. @KrivonosDaria and Anitta Kynsilehto write on the Russian-Finnish border and the proposed law legalising pushback in Finland raster.fi/2024/04/12/framing…
The recently proposed law restricting asylum seekers from applying for refuge on Finland's eastern border is an example of a shock doctrine where the Government exploits the sense of fear to establish laws that contradict human rights @MobileFuturesFI globalvoices.org/2024/03/26/…

1⃣ Suomen hallitus: Turvaa hakevien ihmisten ja muiden siirtolaisten oikeuksia ja asemaa ei saa heikentää.
Turvaa hakevia ihmisiä on maailmassa enemmän kuin koskaan. Turvapaikanhakuoikeuden rajoittaminen ja maahanmuuttopolitiikan kiristäminen eivät ole vastaus tilanteeseen.

Finland is celebrated for its world-renowned daycare system and commitment to social equality. However, beneath the surface, many non-white families face a barrage of microaggressions and everyday racism that challenges the nation’s ideals of equity.

Why We Must Boycott Eurovision? "The feelings of joy, excitement and community that we experience when we watch it feel so powerful precisely because they are contrasted with the depravity of politics happening somewhere else." by @zoecharlottejay raster.fi/2024/02/21/no-norm…

We don’t need to watch Eurovision 2024; Palestinians do need us to support the boycott directly. We must.
I wrote about why we must #boycotteurovision for @raster_fi. Please read, share widely, start conversations, join the boycott. Summary thread below!

Keskustelu kaksoiskansalaisuuden riskeistä ei perustu tutkittuun tietoon vaan uusii ennakkoluuloja ja väärinkäsityksiä. @NelliPiattoeva ja Olga Davydova-Minguet for @raster_fi raster.fi/2024/02/06/keskust…

Hallitus aikoo lakimuutoksin estää paperittomia siirtolaisia virallistamasta asemaansa.

Olemme Vapaa Liikkuvuudessa hyvin huolissamme sisäministeriön työryhmästä, joka valmistelee hallituksen esitystä "maahantulosäännösten kiertämistä koskevan sääntelyn uudistamiseksi".
There is an unequivocal need for a legal solution that guarantees not only peace but securing the Palestinian right of return: Palestinians are currently the largest stateless population in the world raster.fi/2024/02/01/the-pal…
Finland wants to promote the outsourcing of asylum claims to third countries ("Rwanda model") at EU level
Hallitus ryhtyi ajamaan turvapaikkajärjestelmän ulkoistamista kolmansiin maihin EU-tasolla.
Turvapaikanhakijoiden siirrot kolmansiin maihin eivät ole onnistuneet yhdeltäkään eurooppalaiselta valtiolta. Ulkoistamisella tehdään populistista politiikkaa.
