MSF refuses to accept money from Norway – NRK

– For months, MSF has denounced the shameful deterrence policy that Europe has led the people to flee, instead of to help and provide protection to those who need it, says field coordinator Sebastian Stein MSF said in a statement.

He believes refugee agreement between the EU and Turkey puts the whole concept “refugee” at stake. The agreement makes it possible to send back refugees and migrants themselves come by sea from Turkey to Greece.

– It is wrong for us to accept money from European states and Norway, while every day must treat victims of their policies. We ask European governments to change their priorities: From prioritize to close its borders, Europe must instead put displaced people first, says Kyrre Lind, program manager for MSF in Norway.
