Cessation of refugee status and actors of protection: CJEU, judgment of 20 January 2021, OA

Abstract

In her analysis of the OA judgment, concerning the revocation of international protection status with the possible concomitant return of a refugee to their country of origin, Samantha Velluti examines the case by drawing on a comparison with previous rulings of the CJEU as well as the English and German courts. The importance of the judgment lies in shedding light on the meaning of ‘protection’ and ‘actor of protection’ in the country of origin. Even after Brexit, the judgment will continue to have effects in the United Kingdom and be followed accordingly
