Marine Incidents are unfortunately very common, however a large percentage of the time, all possible remedies are taken to make sure that they are never repeated. This might not necessarily be the case here.
More than 1750 migrants perished in the Mediterranean Sea since the beginning of 2015. Meanwhile, most of us are more concerned with Local Council Elections and Hunting Referendums. By no means am I claiming that their importance is inferior, but I genuinely feel that as the time passes by, the world's priorities are becoming more and more disturbed.
Even though the reason for them fleeing the country should be more than enough, the mere fact that they are as equally human as we are, should automatically instigate us to feel more compassion towards them, and provide as much help as we can.While understanding that they might substantially be a partial cause to the cultural and economic problems of our country, we should at least be open to diminishing racism as much as possible. That doesn't cost money to carry out!
I also believe that more help should be provided from other European Countries.
Just as in the treaties it is held that the number of seats in the European Parliament is to be determined according to the population of each Member State, then I deem it ideal that the number of migrants received in all Member States are divided between the same states according to their population.
This would aid in diminishing any pressures on smaller countries, while also potentially providing a better home for the migrants.
What do you think about this matter?
