In my work, I paid attention to asylum seekers in the territory controlled by the European
Union. Examined the detention of asylum seekers and recent cases heard by the European Court of
Human Rights, as well as the wrongful return of migrants from the borders of the European Union
and the application of the principle of non-refoulement. Considered variations in the behaviour of
border guards at the borders of the European Union and EU-controlled external territories.
In my work, I used the doctrinal research method, which helped me to analyse the
legislation of the European Union in the field of migration law and asylum.
