The Eastern enlargement of the European Union has made the Ukraine one of the borders of the Fortress Europe. Here, in the region of Transkapartia, a military secured border with detention camps for refugees from the Global South and the former USSR has come into being; - for refugees who by fleeing into the connecting European countries attempt to escape from war, totalitarism or poverty. It is difficult to obtain information on the circumstances in those camps.
From 11 - 20 August 2007 a no border camp took place in Transkarpatia, where about 300 international migration activists got together. It was their aim to gather information, establish openness on the degrading conditions in the detention camps and exchange their experiences.
Additionally you find a background interview on EU refugee policies with Helmut Dietrich and further information from the no border camp,

Call out for No Border Camp in Ukraine 2007
The eastward expansion of the European Union has resulted in moving the walls of "Fortress Europe" to the Western border of Ukraine. The Ukrainian region of Transcarpatia, of which the biggest cities are Uzhgorod and Mukachevo, has become a new borderline, with increasing militarization and major concentration of detention camps for refugees from the countries of Global South and former USSR, who try to escape war, totalitarianism or misery to the European Union countries. It is hard to find any "open" information about the conditions in the majority of these camps.
The condition of the refugees in Ukraine is very unstable: freedom of movement is restricted; it is hard to get a job or medical care, and no social security is provided. When one gets refugee status, the only support they get from the state is a single payment of a petty 3 euros.
In recent years Ukraine has even extradited asylum seekers to places like Uzbekistan, where they were imprisoned for years in the notorious authoritarian regime's gulags.
