“Jelle Klaas, a prominent Dutch human rights lawyer, says the Netherlands generally has a good track record on human rights issues, but that the current government has been criticized by the UN’s Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, which voiced its concern over an “increase in hostility towards refugees and asylum-seekers” in the country.”

“The best result we could have here is what we’re seeing in the US right now — a movement in the streets, in courts, campaigning, lobbying, people claiming their basic human rights again, and using solidarity,” says Dutch human rights lawyer Klass.
