    CORRELATION OF CONCEPTS

    «ASYLUM», “PROTECTION”
    AND “STATUS OF REFUGEES»
    PROFESSOR: YEVGENII GERASYMENKO
    STUDENT: ISROIL OQILOV
    ASYLUM

    Asylum is a form of protection which allows an


    individual to remain in the particular state
    instead of being removed (deported) to a
    country where he or she fears persecution or
    harm. An asylum seeker is a person looking for
    protection because they fear persecution, or
    they have experienced violence or human rights
    violations. A refugee is a person who asked for
    protection and was given refugee status.
    CLASSIFICATION OF ASYLUM

    • The right of asylum falls into three basic


    categories: territorial, extraterritorial, and
    neutral.
    • 1. Territorial asylum is granted within the
    territorial bounds of the state offering asylum
    and is an exception to the practice of
    extradition. It is designed and employed
    primarily for the protection of persons accused
    of political offenses such as treason, desertion,
    sedition, and espionage.
    CONT

    2. Extraterritorial asylum refers to


    asylum granted in embassies, legations,
    consulates, warships, and merchant
    vessels in foreign territory and is thus
    granted within the territory of the state
    from which protection is sought. Cases
    of extraterritorial asylum granted in
    embassies, legations, or consulates
    (generally known as diplomatic asylum)
    are often occasions for dispute.
    CONTD
    • 3.Neutral asylum is employed by states exercising neutrality during a war to offer
    asylum within its territory to troops of belligerent states, provided that the troops
    submit to internment for the duration of the war.
    PROTECTION

    Protection is commonly defined as “all activities aimed at obtaining full respect for the
    rights of the individual in accordance with the letter and spirit of the relevant bodies of
    law, namely human rights law, international humanitarian law and refugee law” Hence, it
    is correct to assume that protection covers all activities and projects implemented by the
    different agents working with refugees, and this does not only include legal protection
    such as provision of refugee documents, but also every day tasks such as casework and
    recreational activities.
    CONTD
    • In fact, protection is primarily the responsibility of states and its agents. In the case
    of a state or government that is unwilling or unable to protect its own citizens for
    any given reason, these individuals have the right to seek asylum elsewhere, which is
    stipulated in the 1951 Geneva Convention’s definition of a refugee. The 1951
    Refugee Convention and the 1967 Protocol are at the cornerstone of the
    international legal framework for refugee protection as they establish the main
    principles on which refugee protection is based – such as the Principle of non-
    refoulement and the principle of Non-discrimination.
    STATUS OF REFUGEES

    Refugees are people who have


    fled war, violence, conflict or
    persecution and have crossed
    an international border to find
    safety in another country.
    CONT

    Refugees are defined and protected in international law. The 1951 Refugee Convention
    is a key legal document and defines a refugee as:

    • “someone who is unable or unwilling to return to their country of origin owing to a


    well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality,
    membership of a particular social group, or political opinion.”
    HOW TO DEFINE THE STATUS OF REFUGEE

    • Refugee Status Determination, or RSD, is the legal or administrative process


    by which governments or UNHCR determine whether a person seeking
    international protection is considered a refugee under international, regional
    or national law. RSD is often a vital process in helping refugees realize their
    rights under international law.
