English-Estonian translations for asylum

• varjupaik
  Ma olen seisukohal, et ka see on õigus. Varjupaik on õigus, mitte armuand. I believe this also to be a right; asylum is a right, not a favour.
  Varjupaik ei ole soodustus, vaid riikide kohustus ja sõja eest põgenejate õigus. Asylum is not a concession: asylum is a duty for states and a right for those fleeing war.
  Sõna "varjupaik” on kaotanud üldsuse silmis oma sära. The word asylum has rightly lost its glamour in the eyes of the general public.
