Anh Quốc phá đường dây buôn người Việt

Một tòa án của Anh vừa xét xử thành viên thứ bảy của một đường dây "tinh vi" đưa người Việt di cư bất hợp pháp vào Vương quốc Anh bằng xuồng.

Hôm 18/3, Egert Kajaci, 35 tuổi, bị kết án tù 4 năm 6 tháng.

Kajaci đang lái một chiếc ô tô chứa bốn người đàn ông Việt Nam khi bị cảnh sát chặn lại vào 3/8/2018.
Kajaci là thành viên thứ bảy của một băng đảng buôn người vào bờ ở Walmer, Kent, nơi đang bị cảnh sát và Lực lượng Biên phòng theo dõi.

Bảy thành viên của mạng lưới buôn lậu "tinh vi" hiện đã bị kết án tổng cộng số án tù hơn 30 năm.

Nô lệ thời hiện đại.

Ở Đông Berlin cũng có một đường dây chuyên đưa
tụi trẻ con VN từ vùng Trung Bắc Việt sang sống lây lất
trộm cắp đủ thứ. Đến gần khu "chợ Đồng Xuân" sẽ nghe
một loại giọng vừa Bắc vừa Trung rất khó hiểu từ những
khuôn mặt non choẹt VN. Chúng nó chỉ có trộm cắp móc
túi và làm chui trong nhà hàng, hàng quán, cơ sở của
người Việt bên Đông Đức cũ.

Vietnamese priest: I saw people shot dead during my four attempts to get to UK

Father Yen Duc Vu, who now lives in Birmingham, watched security services open fire on migrants leaving for the UK.


Father Yen Duc Vu said he risked his life to come to Britain

A Vietnamese catholic priest who made four attempts to come to Britain has told Sky News he saw people shot dead by security services on one of his failed attempts.

On his third try, Father Yen Duc Vu, who now lives in Birmingham, was already in his boat on a river ready to head to the sea when security services, who had uncovered the plan and were determined to stop people leaving, opened fire.

Some people were shot and killed on one of several boats taking people out of Vietnam, he said, while others drowned after jumping into the water to escape.


39 bodies were found in the back of a lorry in Essex on Wednesday

The experience still affects him years later.

Father Vu said he feels "sad" about the deaths of 39 people whose bodies were found in the back of a truck in Essex on Wednesday.

"When you see they had such a hard journey and it ends in loneliness... in dying alone."

He said they would have known in "every moment" that "death was coming, it would've been very sad".


None of the identities of the victims have been confirmed, but it is thought some were from Vietnam and may have been travelling in a convoy of three vehicles.

Three people, Anna Bui Thi Nhung, Nguyen Dinh Tu and Tra My, all from the country, are believed to be among those in the lorry.

The clergyman, who describes himself as a chaplain to the Vietnamese community in the Midlands, came to the UK as one of the "boat people" who fled Vietnam in the 1980s as the then-impoverished country recovered from the ravages of the civil war.

Asked why people continue to risk what he describes as a "hazardous" journey, he said for his own part he was looking for freedom and "the price of freedom costs you dearly".

"Some [of his contemporaries] said they sacrificed themselves for the next generation," he added.

His own life was at risk on his journey, he said, as his boat was small and unsuitable for the sea but "I accepted that if I died, it was a price I would pay".

He was seeking, he said, "what we [in Vietnam] didn't have - democracy and freedom".

"From what people [already in the UK] told me, they enjoyed freedom and democracy and they are respected and shown dignity," he added.

"Everybody wants a better future."

Boris Johnson abandons Brexit bill in new push for December election
https://www.theguardian.com/politics...ember-election

The prime minister failed on Monday to get the votes of two-thirds of MPs he needed to secure an election under existing laws, after opposition parties largely abstained.However, he said he would table a short bill on Tuesday that would change the law in order to hold a poll on 12 December. He would only need a simple majority for this plan, so an election could be achieved with the backing of the Lib Dems or the Scottish National party.

Earlier Jo Swinson, the Lib Dem leader, said she was not happy with Johnson’s proposed date of 12 December, which is after many universities have broken up for Christmas and students have returned to their home towns.

She said: “Boris Johnson claims he wants a general election, but he also claimed he wouldn’t prorogue parliament or put a border down the Irish sea.

“If Boris Johnson wants a general election, then he could have supported our bill for a general election on 9 December. Instead, he has chosen to stick to his original plan for 12 December which we have already rejected.”

Germany: Dresden declares 'Nazi emergency'

Dresden, the city that spawned the anti-Islam and xenophobic PEGIDA movement, has declared a "Nazi emergency." The local politician who initiated the resolution claimed the city had a real problem that needed tackling.



The eastern German city of Dresden has passed a resolution declaring a "Nazi emergency."

In a policy statement, passed by the city council on Wednesday night, councillors noted that "anti-democratic, anti-pluralist, misanthropic and right-wing extremist attitudes and actions, including violence in Dresden, are occurring with increasing frequency."

"We have a Nazi problem in Dresden and have to do something about it," said Max Aschenbach, a councillor for Die Partei, a satirical political party, who initiated the measure.

"Politics must finally begin to ostracize that and say: No, that's unacceptable," he told the local public broadcaster MDR.

Bastion of far-right

The anti-Islam and xenophobic PEGIDA movement began in the city in 2014. PEGIDA, which stands in German for Patriotic Europeans against the Islamization of the West, organizes regular rallies in the city.

Dresden is located in the state of Saxony, a stronghold of the far-right Alternative For Germany (AfD). The party came in second in state elections in September.

Countering right-wing extremism

Among other things, the resolution calls on the city and civil society organizations to strengthen a democratic culture, protect minority and human rights, and help the victims of right-wing violence.

It calls for a focus on "the causes and consequences of anti-Semitism, racism and position of extreme right to restore trust in democratic institutions and the appreciation of diversity and respectful solidarity."

Turkey demands Germany take back 20 captured 'Islamic State' members

Turkish authorities say 20 German "Islamic State" members are in their custody. They want Germany and other European countries to repatriate their citizens, something most have been hesitant to do.




Turkey has demanded that 20 captured German members of "Islamic State" (IS) be repatriated, according to media reports.

"We need the full cooperation and active partnership of our allies in the fight against terrorism," Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's communications director, Fahrettin Altun, told Germany's Stuttgarter Nachrichten newspaper in an interview published Monday.

According to Altun, four German IS fighters have been captured since the Turkish military and allied militia began a cross-border military operation in northeast Syria against Syrian Kurdish-led forces on October 9. Another 16 German nationals who had joined the jihadi terrorist group were already in Turkish custody.

On Saturday, Turkish Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu criticized European states for not repatriating imprisoned IS members in Turkey.

"We are not a hotel for IS members from any country," he said.

Nearly 100 German IS members imprisoned: Interior Ministry

European states have been wary of repatriating their citizens who went to fight for an IS "caliphate" in Syria and Iraq, fearing a political backlash, complications with gathering evidence to convict them and the risk of extremist attacks at home.

Soylu's remarks were directed at several countries — including the Netherlands, Denmark and the United Kingdom — which have moved to strip dual national IS members of their citizenship or refused to repatriate them.

In June, the German parliament approved a change in the law to allow dual nationals to lose their citizenship if they fight for a foreign terrorist militia. The new law would not apply retroactively, meaning those who already joined IS or have been captured won't lose their citizenship.

In all, Turkey wants to send up to 1,300 foreign jihadis to their home countries — many of them to Europe.

In addition to those imprisoned in Turkey, Syrian Kurdish forces are holding around 11,000 IS fighters in prisons in northeast Syria, along with tens of thousands of women and children family members. Around one-fifth of the IS fighters imprisoned by Syrian Kurdish forces in northeast Syria are believed to be European.

According to the German Interior Ministry, more than 80 German IS members are imprisoned in Syria and Iraq. Syrian Kurdish forces and the United States have also demanded European states take back nationals who joined IS.

US white supremacist arrested in Norway

Norwegian police have arrested a high-profile American white supremacist as he was scheduled to address a far-right conference in Oslo. Norway’s domestic security agency said expulsion was pending under immigration law.



Norwegian public broadcaster NRK and the newspaper Dagbladet identified the man in custody as Greg Johnson, a far-right publicist based, according to Associated Press, in Seattle.

Domestic security agency spokesman Martin Bernsen said the US citizen was arrested on suspicion that he may "play an obvious role in radicalization."

Dagbladet quoted a lawyer for Johnson that he would oppose expulsion on the grounds that he had been invited to exercise freedom of expression.

Norwegian media reported that Johnson was a scheduled speaker at the meeting of the Scandza Forum, a far-right network known for its anti-Semitic and racist views. The meeting was set to take place in Sinsen, a suburb of Oslo. NRK reported that about 25 protesters tried to disrupt the forum.

The US Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors extremist and hate groups, lists Johnson as the "editor-in-chief of the white nationalist publishing house Counter-Currents, an epicenter of 'academic' white nationalism."

In August, a far-right extremist allegedly attempted a terrorist attack on a mosque near Oslo. In 2011 the country experienced the worst terrorist attack in its history when right-wing extremist Anders Behring Breivik killed 77 people, many of them youth associated with the Social Democratic party, in bomb and shooting attacks. In 2012, he was sentenced to 21 years in prison.
