A group helping migrants trying to get into Europe has been caught on video appearing to condone asylum-seekers making misleading statements in order to pass “eligibility interviews” and obtain refugee status.
Ariel Ricker, executive director of Advocates Abroad, a nonprofit NGO that provides legal aid and training to asylum seekers, describes in a video how her organization coaches migrants seeking entry into the European Union to put on a persuasive performance for EASO (European Asylum Support Office) agents, who are tasked with screening migrants.
