Ondanks de beloften van Biden voorafgaand aan de door hem gewonnen verkiezingen en beloften daarna gedaan, stuurt Biden onbegeleide vluchtelingenkinderen terug, ondanks dat dit volgens Amnesty en andere deskundigen op dit gebied gevaarlijk is en gewetenloos….. Daar zou ik nog aan toe willen voegen dat het terugsturen van gevluchte kinderen een schending is van de internationale kinderrechten en een schending van het VN Vluchtelingenverdrag……. Hierbij moet niet vergeten worden dat het overgrote deel van Latijns-Amerikaanse vluchtelingen op de loop zijn gegaan voor door de VS gesteunde plus zelfs georganiseerde en geregisseerde terreur in de thuislanden van die vluchtelingen (het organiseren van opstanden en staatsgrepen, voorafgegaan door illegale sancties die de VS een haar niet welgevallig regime oplegt, dit om de bevolking ontevreden te maken in de hoop dat dit een regime verandering teweeg zal brengen……)…..

Het gaat hier om de zoveelste van een aantal beloften die Biden deed maar waar hij zich niet aan wenst te houden. En zoals op andere dossiers had men dit kunnen weten, immers Biden was als vicepresident onder Obama al mede hoofdverantwoordelijk voor een uiterst inhumaan vluchtelingenbeleid, dat ook destijds mensenrechtenschendend was plus zoals je zal begrijpen een schending van het VN Vluchtelingenverdrag….. Ook destijds werden kinderen van vluchtelingen gezinnen afgenomen en ondergebracht in wat je het best kan vergelijken met concentratiekampen…….* En nee, Trump was niet de eerste die de laatst genoemde misdaad beging, voorts zou de Obama administratie in verhouding meer vluchtelingen hebben gedeporteerd dan die van Trump….

Concentratiekampen voor kinderen, rollen met NAVO-draad (voorzien van scheermessen) niet tegen binnendringers, maar om kinderen tegen te houden die willen vluchten….. Schunnig!!!

Schandalig dan ook dat de reguliere westerse media in deze zaak destijds met de zogenaamd onafhankelijke vingers alleen naar Trump hebben gewezen…… Ach ja, Obama was de beloofde messias-president volgens de reguliere media, waarbij deze ook nog de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede kreeg, terwijl hij de eerste VS president was die beide termijnen in (illegale) oorlogen was verwikkeld en daarnaast ook nog eens illegale oorlogen begon, om nog maar te zwijgen over de moord middels drones op duizenden verdachten, waarbij meer dan 90% van de slachtoffers niet eens werd verdacht……. Voorts organiseerden Hillary Clinton, in 2009 minister van buitenlandse zaken, en de CIA een coup in Honduras, een coup die een uiterst gewelddadig regime aan de macht bracht, die enorme terreur uitoefende op de grote onderlaag en de intellectuelen die zich hebben verzet tegen de coup…..

Eén en ander was en is de reden dat veel Hondurezen op de vlucht zijn geslagen, waarbij de VS de meest logische bestemming was en is……. Nog afgelopen januari sloeg een groep van vele duizenden Hondurezen op de vlucht richting VS en ook onder hen veel onbegeleide kinderen, als reactie daarop heeft de Biden administratie de Mexicaanse autoriteiten onder druk gezet hen niet de zuidelijke grens over te laten steken, daarvoor heeft de VS zelfs menskrachten ter beschikking gesteld aan de Mexicaanse grensautoriteiten…….

Kinderen terugsturen naar Mexico is hen direct blootstellen aan moord en misbruik….. Om even aan te geven hoe gevaarlijk Mexico is voor vluchtelingen: sinds de Oorlog tegen Drugs (War on Drugs) in 2004 werd doorgevoerd in Mexico zijn er 400.000 mensen vermoord……. Juist het noorden van Mexico is bijzonder gevaarlijk en dat is de plek waar die kinderen terechtkomen nadat ze zijn teruggestuurd…..

‘Dangerous and Unconscionable’: Amnesty Finds Biden Is Illegally Expelling Thousands of Unaccompanied Children

Jake Johnson, staff writer

June 11, 2021

“The
Biden administration is summarily returning almost all unaccompanied
Mexican children just hours after they seek safe haven, often without
considering the risks they could face upon return.”

A detailed new report by Amnesty International finds
that the Biden administration is abusing an anti-trafficking law to
forcibly expel thousands of unaccompanied Mexican children seeking
asylum at the United States’ southern border, often sending them back to
dangerous conditions without adequately screening for threats to their
safety.

Titled Pushed Into Harm’s Way, the 50-page report
(pdf) released Friday documents the Biden administration’s effective
continuation of its predecessor’s policy of rejecting nearly all
asylum-seekers at official ports of entry along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Though Biden immigration authorities have largely stopped applying to unaccompanied children a Trump-era Title 42 policy that used the pandemic as a pretext
to expel migrants, the new administration is “misusing a provision of
anti-trafficking legislation concerning Mexican unaccompanied children
to deprive them of effective screenings for harm and to deny them access
to asylum procedures,” Amnesty alleges.

The Trafficking Victims
Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) requires U.S. officials to screen
unaccompanied children to confirm they are not victims of human
trafficking and ensure that returning them to their home country would
not threaten their safety.

As The Intercept‘s Ryan Devereaux reported
Friday, “Since 2006, when the so-called war on drugs became a military
campaign in Mexico, more than 400,000 people have been killed.”

“Large
regions of the country are frequently home to rampant violence and
impunity,” Devereaux continued. “Many border cities in the north of the
country, the localities where the U.S. removes people to on a regular
basis, are among the most dangerous, particularly for migrants and
asylum-seekers who are often targets of extortion and kidnapping.”

But
despite the requirements under TVPRA, Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) officials “are often not performing child-protection screenings
faithfully, appropriately, or with reasonable informed consent of the
children, who often do not understand what is happening during the
process,” Amnesty’s report notes.

“The Biden administration is
summarily returning almost all unaccompanied Mexican children just hours
after they seek safe haven, often without considering the risks they
could face upon return,” Erika Guevara-Rosas, Americas director at
Amnesty International, said in a statement.

The new report comes days after Vice President Kamala Harris, during a visit to Guatemala, explicitly warned would-be migrants not to travel to the U.S.-Mexico border in search of refuge, telling them they “will be turned back.”

“Do not come,” said Harris.

Vedant
Patel, assistant White House press secretary and a Biden immigration
adviser, sent a similar message when speaking to reporters last month.

“The
policy right now for Mexican unaccompanied minors is for them to be
repatriated,” said Patel, using a euphemism for forced expulsion.

Amnesty
says in its report that “since January 2021, the Biden administration
has continued to exempt only unaccompanied migrant children from the
[Trump-era Title 42] policy, pushing families to make an impossible
choice.”

The report continues:

Likely thousands
of children have had to separate from their asylum-seeking parents in
order to escape dangerous border regions of northern Mexico, and have
then crossed the border alone, since they would otherwise be deported as
a family if their parents crossed with them. In addition to compelling
families to separate unnecessarily, U.S. border authorities still
reportedly turn unaccompanied children away at some of the most heavily
trafficked official ports-of-entry and deny them access to asylum
procedures. Despite their legal right to request protection at
ports-of-entry, the vast majority of unaccompanied children instead take
dangerous journeys across the open border—often at the mercy of
smugglers.

Now, while unaccompanied children are no longer
subjected to mass expulsions under Title 42, U.S. border authorities are
still immediately returning the vast majority of unaccompanied Mexican
children who enter the USA.

In an interview with
Amnesty researchers, the director of the border rights program at the
legal services organization Al Otro Lado recounted the story of an
unaccompanied boy from Mexico whom CBP officials were attempting to
expel this past March.

“He was held in CBP custody six to eight
days and was not given the opportunity to call his family or me his
lawyer, despite the fact that I entered a G28 [legal representation
form] and requested that he be permitted to contact his uncle in
California,” the advocate said. “His family sent him alone and his
parents were in hiding in Mexico. They feared the whole family would be
sent back, which is why they sent him alone.”

According to
Amnesty, the boy was “ultimately held in CBP custody for seven days
(more than double the legally permitted time) before being transferred
to [the Office of Refugee Resettlement], from whose custody he was
released to a close family member in the United States. As of May 2021,
his family remained in hiding in Mexico, unable to request asylum
protection with their son due to the Biden administration’s retention of
the Title 42 policy.”

Amnesty International @amnesty The US and Mexican governments are forcibly returning tens of thousands of unaccompanied children to the countries they just fled in search of safety, without adequate screenings or protection from the harm they may face upon return.

The
Biden administration’s policy of turning away most unaccompanied
children amounts to a “systematic” violation of their right to seek
asylum, Amnesty says, casting further doubt on President Joe Biden’s
promise to create a more humane immigration system in contrast to the
overt cruelty of the Trump era.

The humanitarian group’s report
also shows that Mexican authorities are deporting the “vast majority” of
unaccompanied children that arrive from Central American nations
seeking safety from violence and persecution.

“These are dangerous
and unconscionable policies,” said Amnesty’s Guevara-Rosas. “The United
States and Mexico must stop denying unaccompanied children their
universal human rights to seek asylum and to family unity, no matter
where they’re from.”

Specifically, Amnesty is calling on Biden to
immediately withdraw the Trump administration’s Title 42 rule, order CBP
to stop rejecting asylum-seeking children at ports of entry along the
U.S.-Mexico border, and “swiftly facilitate all asylum claims by
unaccompanied children—irrespective of their nationality—and their
expeditious release to family members or other sponsors in the USA.”
