2024 első felében több mint 513 ezren kértek menedékjogot az Európai Unióban. Egyharmaduk volt nő vagy lány. Az uniós menekültügyi rendszer a kérelmek elbírálásakor bizonyos mértékig tekintetbe veszi a nemek eltérő helyzetét, az Európai Unió Bírósága pedig a nemi alapú erőszakot elegendő alapnak tekinti a menedékjog megadásához. Azonban ennél többre lenne szükség, mivel a nők és a lányok emberi jogai több szempontból is sérülhetnek a menekültügyi eljárások során.

Nemi szempontok a menedékjogi kérelmek elbírálásakor

The European Parliament&nbsp;plays&nbsp;a central role in shaping the EU’s migration and asylum policy by&nbsp;scrutinising&nbsp;legislation,&nbsp;monitoring&nbsp;implementation of existing rules, and&nbsp;holding&nbsp;the European Commission and Member States accountable. Parliament&nbsp;emphasises&nbsp;the need for a fair, efficient, and humane system that&nbsp;ensures&nbsp;solidarity and responsibility-sharing among Member States,&nbsp;protects&nbsp;fundamental rights, and&nbsp;supports&nbsp;vulnerable people. MEPs&nbsp;engage&nbsp;in debates, propose amendments, and&nbsp;oversee&nbsp;cooperation with third countries, focusing on safe and legal migration pathways, effective asylum procedures, and the management of returns. Through these actions, the European Parliament&nbsp;guides&nbsp;the development and implementation of EU migration and asylum policies across the Union.

During the Mini-Plenary Session, MEPs&nbsp;discuss&nbsp;the&nbsp;first European Annual Asylum and Migration Report&nbsp;and the establishment of the&nbsp;Annual Solidarity Pool, key elements of the implementation phase of the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum. The debate&nbsp;allows&nbsp;Members to&nbsp;assess&nbsp;current trends in asylum applications, migration flows, and returns, as well as Member States’ preparedness for the full application of the new Pact in 2026. Parliament&nbsp;emphasises&nbsp;the need for&nbsp;fair responsibility-sharing among Member States, stronger&nbsp;solidarity mechanisms&nbsp;to support countries under migratory pressure, and closer&nbsp;cooperation with third countries&nbsp;on migration management, including readmission and legal pathways. MEPs also&nbsp;call&nbsp;for enhanced protection of fundamental rights at borders and transparent monitoring of the new EU return and screening procedures.

Migration

In December 2023 , MEPs and national governments reached a long-sought agreement to revamp the EU’s asylum and migration legislation. Parliament and Council negotiators agreed on the final form of five separate EU regulations, establishing how to share the management of asylum and migration flows among member states and what to do in cases of sudden migratory crisis.

The rules also regulate how to deal with people arriving at the EU’s external borders, the processing of asylum claims, and the identification of those arriving. Following the deal, EP President Roberta Metsola said: “”Today is a truly historic day, as we have delivered on the Migration and Asylum Pact, possibly the most important legislative package of this mandate. Europe will now get a robust legislative framework that is the same in all Member States.

That functions and that protects, an approach that is humane and fair with those seeking protection, that is firm with those who are not eligible, and that is strong with those who exploit the most vulnerable

Refugee movements and migration are at the centre of global attention. &nbsp;The European Parliament is actively involved, in the adoption of new laws on irregular and regular immigration. It is a full co-legislator together with the Council representing member states on these matters since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty in 2009.

Asylum

On Tuesday, MEPs and the Commission debate changes to EU rules on the returns of people who have no legal right to remain in Europe.

The proposal for a new legal framework on so-called “returns”, announced by President Ursula von der Leyen in July 2024, is expected to be formally unveiled by the European Commission on Tuesday.

During the plenary debate, MEPs scrutinise the proposal, which is intended to increase the return rate of third-country nationals not entitled to stay in the EU. Parliament is likely to emphasise the importance of cooperation with third countries, including on the readmission of their own nationals, as well innovative measures such as the establishment of return hubs in third countries.

Debate on the new EU approach on migrant returns

MEPs discuss with the European Commission potential changes to EU legislation on the return of third-country nationals with no legal right to stay in Europe. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen calls for a common approach to returns and stresses the importance of cooperation with third countries on readmitting their nationals. As the EU prepares to implement the new Pact on Migration and Asylum, the debate focuses on securing external borders, strengthening screening processes, and improving return procedures. Poland’s proposal to temporarily suspend asylum requests and Italy’s plan to process asylum seekers in Albania are also discussed.

Managing migration in an effective and holistic way through fostering returns

MEPs discuss and vote on Wednesday on ten new bills updating the EU asylum and migration rules, emphasising cooperation and mandatory but flexible solidarity. 

Plenary wraps up this term’s legislative work in the field of migration and asylum with a debate with the Belgian Council Presidency and the Commission on the outcome of negotiations over the Migration and Asylum Pact. The already agreed texts aim to improve cooperation among European states and enhance the EU’s response in case of crises. 

The Pact encompasses a new framework for a comprehensive asylum and migration policy based on solidarity, fair responsibility sharing, and updated rules on criteria and mechanisms to determine the member state responsible for examining an application for international protection (formerly known as the Dublin rules). Member states will be able to choose between relocating asylum applicants to their territory, making financial contributions or providing operational and technical support to member states under migratory pressure. 

There will be specific rules for crisis situations, and the rules on reception standards for asylum applicants will be updated. The amended qualification rules will set uniform standards across the EU to recognise people applying for international protection, as well as their rights. There will be a faster common procedure –including provisions on inadmissible claims and more expedited returns- across the EU to grant and to withdraw international protection, following an initial pre-entry screening and registration of fingerprints and facial images in a common database (Eurodac). Finally, a new EU framework for resettlement will regulate the opportunities for refugees in third countries to come to the EU, based on member states’ voluntary participation

This infoclips shows the activities at an asylum reception centre in Malmö, Sweden and a class learning Swedish at SFI Swedish For Immigrants Academy in Lund, Sweden. The Pact on Migration and Asylum establishes new EU rules for managing migration and creating a unified asylum system, aligning with European values. It builds on previous proposals to create a comprehensive approach that strengthens policies on migration, asylum, border management, and integration. The pact aims to manage migration fairly and sustainably, offering flexibility for EU countries to address their unique challenges while ensuring protections for those in need. After being adopted by the European Parliament and Council, the new rules will take effect on 11 June 2024, with full implementation two years later, ensuring secure borders and safeguarding rights across the EU.
