Rights groups claim that Croatia 'has normalised and institutionalised violence' against migrants as the EU turns a blind eye towards the abuse.
Migrants making their way into Croatia from Bosnia are now greeted with a hard-hitting advertising campaign stating: ''Welcome to Croatia - Country of torture.'' ’, or Welcome Initiative, is behind the campaign which aims to support refugees and protest against restrictive and abusive migrant policies.
“Migrants are treated poorly in Croatia, first they are being abused by the border police, and if they manage to come and stay in Croatia, the support system and integration process are deeply flawed and inadequate, offering no real chance for a decent life.” “The main health issues in all the centres are scabies from unhygienic living conditions, and injuries from the long walks and attempts to cross the border with Croatia,” said a spokesperson from the IFRC toBosnia is increasingly bearing the brunt of the migration along the Macedonian and Serbian corridor, a main route in the past which has become more tightly policed.
Bosnia is “not ready" to host the influx of migrants says Redjepi, adding: "The conditions in the camps are not like in Macedonia and Serbia. Most of the migrants are outside, in one camp called Vucjak there are very substandard conditions and winter is coming very fast and it can be very cold in Bosnia.”that a new migration route is opening up, however, Redjepi is sceptical about this.
