The rules don't apply for some refugees in Europe

Guest: Lauren Markham, journalist and author As Europe opens its doors to more than two million Ukrainians fleeing the horrific Russian invasion of their country, there are others for whom the doors are not left quite as open. The United Nations refugee convention states that a refugee should not be returned to a country that endangers life or freedom. It is international law, but not all laws are applied equally and sometimes they aren't applied at all. For millions fleeing war, persecution, conflict and climate crises, a new form of brutality awaits them even at the place of refuge. Lauren Markham, a California-based journalist covering migration and author of the 2017 book "The Far Away Brothers," explains why the basic human right of seeking safety is becoming the reason for thousands of deaths.
