(ANSAmed) - Brussels, September 22 - European Commission
President Jean-Claude Juncker said Thursday that member States
"must" show solidarity in sharing the burden of refugees who
arrive in Europe.
"Some countries do it, others say no because they are
Catholic and they don't want Muslims," he said. "This is
unacceptable because they are not (only) Muslims but human
beings".
He added that countries unable to participate in the
redistribution of asylum seekers "must participate more in the
reinforcement of protection of the (EU's) external border, which
must be done by the end of October".
