ULUSLARARASI KAMU HUKUKU II - Deneme Sınavı - 7

Accordingly, the expression “events occurring before January 1, 1951” primarily constituted a temporal limitation; besides, a geographical limitation has been regulated as” events occurring in Europe” and “events occurring in Europe or elsewhere”.

The education criterion is not included in the refugee definition in the 1951 Refugee Convention.

Internally displaced persons may have been displaced for the same reasons as refugees; however, they remained in their own countries and are still subject to the law of that country.

The principle of non-refoulement is not absolute. The exception is regulated in the second paragraph of Article 33 of the 1951 Convention.

The UN General Assembly established the High Commissioner for Refugees on December 14, 1950.

The rise of the number of migrants entering the EU by using the Eastern Mediterranean
route from Turkey to Greece caused the signing of the Agreement between the EU and the Republic of Turkey on the Readmission of Persons Residing Without Authorization on December 16, 2013.

As the Compact is not an international treaty, it is not binding under international law for now.

The main objective of the Agreement is the transfer and admission of persons who have been found illegally entering, being present in or residing in the contracting parties.

The OAU Convention is the first regional legal instrument governing refugee protection.

1967 Protocol Relating
to the Status of Refugees, which was opened for
signature on January 31, 1967, entered into force
on October 4, 1967, emerged under the influence
of the idea that persons should be granted refugee
status without any limitation and removed the
phrase about temporal limitation in the 1951
Convention.
Another significant development in terms of
the development of refugee law is the prohibition
of being a party to the 1967 Protocol with a
geographical limitation.

Unlike the OAU Convention, the Cartagena Declaration is not a formally binding legal instrument.

The absence of a person's home does not end his refugee status.

According to the 1951 Convention, well-founded fear of being persecuted can be originated from the reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion.

The UN General Assembly established the High Commissioner for Refugees on December 14, 1950, by its Resolution 428 to “provide international protection for refugees and seek permanent solutions to their problems” as a subsidiary organ under Article 22 of the UN Charter.

According to the 1951 Convention, well-founded fear of being persecuted can be originated from the reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion.

Special attention shall be paid to the current concept of mass influx. It is not mentioned in the 1951 Convention, 1967 Protocol or even in the 1969 OAU Convention.

Turkey and EU signed the Agreement on Readmission of Persons Residing without
Authorization on 16 December 2013 and the Agreement entered into force on 1 October 2014.
