Interception at sea represents one of the most direct means whereby states seek to prevent asylum seekers from gaining access to their territory and domestic asylum procedures. 3, record 4, English, - interdiction%20at%20sea
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
interdiction at sea: There is a discrepancy between the information on the UNHCR online thesaurus and their printed version from 2004. The online thesaurus recommends using "interception at sea" but the UNHCR terminologists contacted acknowledge that the concept has evolved and this term should be restricted to older literature. Therefore, "interdiction at sea" should be preferred, as stated on their printed glossary. 4, record 4, English, - interdiction%20at%20sea

L’interception en mer et les mesures pour réduire la migration illégale ne devraient pas entraîner la violation du principe de non-refoulement, qui est la pierre angulaire du droit international des réfugiés et empêchent de renvoyer les personnes dans des pays où leur vie et leur liberté sont menacées. 3, record 4, French, - interdiction%20en%20mer
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
interdiction en mer; interception en mer : Les terminologues de l'UNHCR(Haut Commissariat des Nations Unies pour les réfugiés) favorisent l'utilisation d’«interdiction en mer» dans leur lexique «UNHCR Réfugiés» de 2004 bien que seulement «interception en mer» figure dans leur lexique en ligne. Ils recommandent de ne plus utiliser «interception en mer» parce que les bateaux ne sont plus arraisonnés. 4, record 4, French, - interdiction%20en%20mer
