Frontex in a nutshell
Border management within the European Union has undergone an evolution starting from nationally focused systems to operational cooperation at the external borders. National border security systems are nowadays being complemented by a unified set of effective tools to man-age potential risks at the external borders. Frontex - the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union - was created particularly to integrate national border security systems of Member States against all kind of threats that could happen on or through the external borders of the EU.

Bethlehem Huluka Kebede
Bethlehem holds a real and immediate fear that if she is deported to Ethiopia she will be tortured, detained for an indefinite period and killed. Ethiopia's human rights situation has progressively worsened, marked by a harsh intolerance for independent societal activity, criticism of government actions, or opposition political activity. Government critics, like Bethlehem continue to be subjected to harassment, arrest and torture.
