Thousands of migrants have died in the Mediterranean over the past decade, and there are increasing demands for greater action. In its previous term, the European Parliament called for more active and coordinated search and rescue (SAR) operations, but other organisations have also stressed the need for further measures. Under international law, EU countries are responsible for SAR operations for ships within their jurisdiction, with Frontex able to offer support. A permanent solidarity mechanism will be in place from July 2026 as part of the pact on migration and asylum. However, creating a European search and rescue corps would require a clear legal basis under EU law. Frontex could be given a larger role in SAR operations, but for this would need additional powers and resources. Source : © European Union, 2026 - EP

Briefing No. 5 - Following independence from the CIS, the environmental situation in Estonia has improved considerably because of the economic recession and high investments. Despite the very recent signing of the Association Agreement, Estonia has already made considerable progress in harmonization of environmental legislation. All White Paper legislation will probably have been transposed by the end of 1999. Adoption of the remaining acquis communautaire is planned for the end of 2001. Even though this date is rather unrealistic, the acquis will probably be adopted before Estonia’s accession. However, application and transposition in the high-investment areas is currently very patchy and has to be improved. Source : © European Union, 2026 - EP

People from racial and ethnic minority backgrounds face discrimination and its consequences on a daily basis. However, the exact scale of the problem is hard to gauge, owing to a lack of data and general under‑reporting of racist incidents. Although the European Union (EU) has been introducing legislation to combat racial and xenophobic discrimination since 2000, the problem persists. The global Black Lives Matter protests highlighted the need for new measures, while the COVID‑19 pandemic saw a major increase in reports of racist and xenophobic incidents, and the crisis it triggered had a disproportionately large negative effect on racial and ethnic minority groups, in the form of higher death and infection rates. Studies point to the cost of racial discrimination not only for the individuals concerned, but also for society as a whole. For instance, a 2018 EPRS report argued that the loss in earnings caused by racial and ethnic discrimination for both individuals and societies amounts to billions of euros annually. EU citizens also acknowledge this problem: a 2019 survey found that over half of Europeans believe racial or ethnic discrimination to be widespread in their country. To address racial discrimination and the inequalities it engenders, the European Commission has put forward a number of equality strategies and actions. The European Parliament, meanwhile, has long demanded an end to racial discrimination. In recent resolutions, Parliament has called for an end to structural racism, discrimination, racial profiling and police brutality; for protection of the right to protest peacefully; for an enhanced role for culture, education, media and sport in the fight against racism; and for authorities to take an intersectional approach. This is a further update of a briefing, the previous edition of which was from April 2025. Source : © European Union, 2026 - EP
