The principle of voluntariness is the cornerstone of international protection with respect to the return of refugees.

This would necessarily occur prior to the time at which his refugee status is formally determined. Recognition of his refugee status does not therefore make him a refugee but declares him to be one.

The Swedish Aliens act sets out the categories of people who are entitled to proctection in Sweden. Clarity, credibility and humanity are the watchwords of the legislation. A person who feels a well-founded fear of persecution on grounds of race, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or religious or political conviction is given asylum under the Geneva Convention. Others in need of protection are those who risk capital punishment, torture or other inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, those who are fleeing from internal or external armed conflict or environmental disaster, and those who are subject to persecution because of their gender or homosexuality. In mass migration situations the Government can authorise temporary two-year residence permits. 2, record 13, English, - Swedish%20Aliens%20Act
