If all countries of the European Union to cooperate, it should be feasible to redistribute a million refugees across the 28 Member States.

media_xll_3446176-3.jpgThat said President of the European Parliament Martin Schulz Thursday after consultations with Prime Minister Mark Rutte. But if there are less countries than such amount for the remaining countries will be much more difficult, the German it added.

The EU has decided earlier this year to a total of 160,000 refugees to redistribute the Member States.

Schulz was in The Hague to prepare for the Dutch EU Presidency in the first half of next year. The migration issue will demand a lot of attention.

Resistance
By redistribution in the EU, there is resistance. Slovakia showed Wednesday managed to go to the European Court of Justice to challenge the allocation of refugees in the European Union. The country must absorb 802 refugees.

Rutte regrets the step of Slovaks, he said. Schulz thinks the government in Bratislava will lose the case. The Prime Minister stressed again that the flow of refugees to the EU are not sustainable. ,, This flow must be very, very, very down. "" The government expects that this year 58,000 people in our country will apply for asylum.

Germany will this year more than one million refugees. Then calculates the Conference of Interior Ministers of the German Länder. ,, We will before Christmas reach one million in Germany, '' said Roger Lewentz minister of Rhineland-Palatinate on Thursday. The German federal government is going into its official forecast of 800 000 asylum seekers throughout 2015.

Criticism has Lewentz in European countries such as Poland who say no refugees will take longer. ,, They are always there when the chickens if there will be distributed from Brussels farm subsidies and other contributions, which are also coughed up a large part of German financial sources. ''

Rutte also finds that European countries must fulfill the agreements. If they do not, they should be held accountable, said Rutte. Especially Greece is under fire because border security is inadequate here and refuses help in this area of the EU.


Emergency aid
Greece on Thursday called on European intervention in relation to the large numbers of refugees who gets the land. The European Commission announced on Thursday that the southern European country has submitted an official request. EU Commissioner Christos Stylianides (Humanitarian Aid) called on the EU Member States ,, generous '' on the request to go in.

It is the first time that Greece emergency requesting service in connection with the migration crisis. Hungary, Serbia and Slovenia did so earlier this year.

The EU Civil Protection Mechanism provides crisis intervention, to include earthquakes (Nepal) or flooding. Help can be offered in the form of for instance sleeping bags, blankets, bedding, tents and medical supplies, but also in the form of expertise.
