Press Release 14/06/2000

 The tragic result of European Refugee policies:
 DEATH TOLL RISES TO 2000

 More than 2000 refugees and migrants have died in and around Europe since
 1993 as a result of European refugee policies. Instead of finding a safe
 place and a better perspective for their life people have drowned,
 suffocated, been beaten to death by racist attackers, gagged to death by
 policemen or committed suicide in dispair.
 These deaths can be put down to border militarisations, asylum laws,
 detention policies, deportations and carrier sanctions, summarised as
 "Fortress Europe". As possibilities for legal entry for refugees and
 migrants are more and more restricted, and as borders are made more
 impermeable, people are forced to take more and more dangerous routes.

 The cases that have been documented by UNITED include amongst others:

 Nearly weekly people drown during their attempt to cross the Mediterranean.
 On the 31st of December 1999, 39 people drowned in the Adriatic Sea when
 their rubber boat sank.
 A Reuters news item quotes a Spanish report about 120 assumed deaths in the
 first four month of this year of people who drowned while attempting to
 cross the Strait of Gibraltar.

 On 6 May an Algerian asylum seeker desperately committed suicide at the
 detention centre at Frankfurt/Main (Germany) airport after being held there
 over 8 months.

 In August last year a stowaway clinging to the underside of a lorry was
 crushed to death while disembarking in Dover (Great-Britain).


 UNITED protests against the deadly realities of Fortress Europe. It will be
 impossible to shut the borders totally. As capital and goods freely cross
 borders, people will continue to follow. We need to work towards long-term
 solutions for global problems instead of dnying these facts.
