The European Commission said
Monday EU member nations must "up the level of solidarity" in
the face of the migrant emergency in the French port of Calais,
where refugees and asylum seekers have tried to break in to the
Eurotunnel in order to cross over to Great Britain.
"What is happening in Calais confirms what the Commission
has always said - that we need to up the level of solidarity and
the taking on of responsibility among member States," an EC
spokesperson said.
Meanwhile in Paris, some 100 African refugees occupied an
abandoned school and many more are sleeping rough by the side of
the Seine in full view of trendy nightclubs and tourist
attractions.
