Europe must brace "to cope with
a heavy migratory season" with thousands of migrants poised to
take to the Mediterranean this summer, the European Commission
said Tuesday.
The EC is ready to "play its part" and its new "holistic
approach" will be unveiled next month, European Immigration
Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said.
Estimates of the desperate migrants who will try the
dangerous crossing this summer range from 250,000 to 500,000.
