In our latest blog post, co-published with @statewatch.bsky.social, Luca Rondi exposes the 'blackmail' at the centre of @frontex.bsky.social's push for 'voluntary' deportations from Europe.

The piece was originally written in Italian for Altreconomia.

From cooperation to complicity: meet the companies powering the EU’s war on migrants – Abolish Frontex European Campaign 11 March 2026 – Even as  people continue to die at Europe’s borders , little is known about the private sector’s role in implementing increasingly  draconian EU migration policies . In fact, when it comes to migration, the  cosy relationship between private companies and EU institutions is purposefully kept far from public view, escaping scrutiny  and transparency. As  our new research shows , the truth is that such companies are getting more than their fair share of face time with EU policymakers, via pitch events that create exclusive opportunities to influence public spending and policymaking on migration topics.

Everyone knows what is happening in Libya. In an interview with Dutch newspaper Kanttekening, front-LEX Legal Director @iftachco.bsky.social makes it clear: Frontex’s Executive Director cannot hide behind claims of ignorance.

For the future of Frontex the Council of Europe discussed deployments in Ukraine, drone defense duties, self-deportations and much more. We have a much better suggestion: #AbolishFrontex

And Germany is supplying the highest number of officers each year to Frontex.

Shame on you! EU, Frontex & police - you have blood on your hands!
Lets stand together, lets keep each other safe. All prison, all cops and all borders have to go.

Frontex is also responsible for the countless mass deportations in Europe as a main coordinator and financial contributor. They are responsible for creating systems which drive people into desparation and suicide in detention centres.

The struggle against police and prisons must always include the struggle against border violence and patrol.

What does the situation in Minneapolis reveal of our own migration policies here in Europe? Above all: why isn’t it being connected to Frontex?

Text on picture: ALL COPS ARE BORDERS. Whether you've been feeling powerless or enraged seeing the news about ICE in the US, turn your eyes to the EU border regime agency FRONTEX. Text as a picture: Borders are inseparable from policing as all borders require forms of violent policing in order to be maintained. The Fortress Europe of today is built off decades of colonial plunder and oppression and the ongoing war against people on the move. The struggle against police and prisons must always include the struggle against border violence and patrol. Stats picture: 
Total Deportations 2025 (missing data for Q4)
ICE: 310.000+
FRONTEX (or EU Border Regime): 122.095+

Total Deportations 2024
ICE: 271.484
FRONTEX (or EU Border Regime): 110.385 Call to action picture:

The European Union is handing refugees to Libyan militias.
But there is another Union - the one between us.

Join us. Help Karim fight back.

Even the smallest contribution can help keep Karim safe until the judges decide his case.

Alaa Hamoudi was very unlucky to end up in the hands of Frontex and its Greek partners, but his luck turned when Bashar found him, and thanks to Bashar and his colleagues from @lighthousereports.com and @bellingcat.com, Alaa’s case was ultimately brought before the @eucourtofjustice.bsky.social

#b2001 #AbolishFrontex

Come to our event 🤝

In the workshop we want to share knowledge about the key role that Frontex, the EU border agency, plays in the Fortress Europe’s border regime, shed light on it violent practices and ways in which it puts people on the move at risk.

We also want to touch on topics of militarization of borders and connecting it to anti-militarist resistance.

The mandate and resources of Frontex are steadily increasing. These increases are granted and funded by EU member states, which include plans to open new training centres and expand their operations.

We want to think together of ways in which we can organize against this and work towards dismantling the EU’s border regime. Post image

Every euro invested in Frontex training means more pushbacks, more deaths at sea, and more suffering for people on the move.

These Academies are nothing less than a militarized training ground to increase capacities for border violence, inhumane detention, deportation, and denial of safety to millions of people on the move. They are laying the ground for a transnational infrastructure of exclusion and control.

We felt the need to reply because you reposted the call to action against Frontex in your post.

Just to avoid confusion: While Frontex has similarities to ICE it is an entity of the European Union. Do not mix them up when you are advocating for change in the USA, otherwise your message might be dismissed. We have written about the connection of ICE and FRONTEX here:

We shouldn’t have to say this in 2025: hunting human beings is illegal––like many of Frontex’s activities, from cooperating with the Hellenic Coastguard to sharing the location of migrant boats with Libya, for which we have taken the agency to Court.
