Melech 9,900 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 "Slovakia says it will only accept Christians when it takes in Syrian refugees under a EU relocation scheme. The country is due to receive 200 people from camps in Turkey, Italy and Greece under the EU plan to resettle 40,000 new arrivals. Interior ministry spokesman Ivan Netik said Muslims would not be accepted because they would not feel at home. The UN's refugee agency (UNHCR) called on countries to take an "inclusive approach" to relocation. But Mr Netik denied the move was discriminatory and said it was intended to ensure community cohesion. 'Not going to like it' The number of migrants at the EU's borders has surged in recent months, reaching a record high of 107,500 in July. Most are Syrians, Afghans, and sub-Saharan Africans, fleeing instability or poverty. "We could take 800 Muslims but we don't have any mosques in Slovakia so how can Muslims be integrated if they are not going to like it here?" EU Commission spokeswoman Annika Breithard said she could not comment directly on the Slovak statement, but stressed that EU states were banned from any form of discrimination. Meanwhile Babar Baloch, Central Europe spokesman for the UNHCR, said: "Resettlement is greatly needed for many refugees who are at extreme risk among the world's most vulnerable groups. "We encourage governments to take an inclusive approach while considering refugees for resettlement and should not base their selection on discrimination." More than 240,000 migrants have crossed the Mediterranean already this year, arriving on the shores of Greece and Italy before travelling on to other destinations. Germany, the biggest recipient of asylum-seekers in the EU, has said it could receive as many as 800,000 applicants this year. The numbers are far higher than the record 438,000 asylum applications in 1992 during the Bosnian crisis. Both the EU and the UN have called on other countries to share the burden." http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-33986738 They are crying about 200 refugees ?

Guest Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 They are crying about 200 refugees ? Sis take 800.000 and then you are may allowed to cry. Or even then not, because those are human beings who come from horrible conditions. Most of those people don't live in terrible conditions and even then those shouldn't be a reason for people to flee. War/your life being in danger is the only reason why someone should be accepted, and only for a temporary stay. They have a way too positive image of Europe and think everything will be handed to them when lots of people here can't even make ends meet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
