EU official admits: Europe has no strategy for the impending new wave of migrants
Europe remains unprepared for a massive surge in immigration from Africa, according to a top European Union official.
It is not news — or at least should not be — that Europe has no strategy to deal with the effects of its suicidal immigration policy, but it is news that the president of the EU Parliament is openly admitting this in the face of the evidence that far too many Western leaders are choosing to brush off. Antonio Tajani said that “overcrowding, poverty and war and will likely push ‘millions’ of people from Africa to Europe in the coming decades, and that “without a strategy we will have terrorism, illegal immigration, instability.”
Put more bluntly: the EU is ruled by leaders who care only about winning the next election, and who have no strategy beyond that. Now that a further massive influx of unvetted migrants is headed their way, EU countries will experience an escalation of poverty, a worsening housing crisis (UK authorities tried to cover up theirs), jihad attacks, increased crime, growing no-go zones, and a deepening threat to their constitutions and social order.
“EU Official: Europe Has No Strategy For Impending Wave of African Immigration”, by Will Racke, Daily Caller, November 27, 2017:
Europe remains unprepared for a massive surge in immigration from Africa, according to a top European Union official.Antonio Tajani, the president of the EU parliament, said overcrowding, poverty and war and will likely push “millions” of people from Africa to Europe in the coming decades. Ahead of the annual EU-Africa summit this week, Tajani called for improved coordination among EU members and a “Marshall Plan” for Africa to help stem the flow of migrants.“Without a strategy we will have terrorism, illegal immigration, instability,” he said, according to Financial Times. “There are too many voices on Libya, on Africa.”Immigration remains remains a potent issue in European politics, even as migrant flows have subsided from the height of the refugee crisis in 2015. Right-wing and immigration skeptic parties have enjoyed a surge in popularity in response to decisions by EU leaders, particularly German Chancellor Angela Merkel, to admit more than 1 million refugees and economic migrants from the Middle East since 2015.Although the EU has since managed to reduce the flow of immigrants via the land route through Turkey, illegal immigration from Africa across the Mediterranean Sea is surging. The number of African migrants arriving via the Libya to Italy sea crossing is up 40 percent from 2016, EU officials said this summer. Most of the immigrants are coming from West African states such as Senegal, Guinea and Nigeria in order to escape economic hardship and overcrowding.Demographic trends in Africa suggest the flow of migrants will intensify in the coming years. The continent-wide population is expected to double from 1.2 billion to 2.5 billion by 2050, with most of the growth concentrated in Africa’s least-developed countries, according to UN projections.Africa’s pending population boom takes on additional significance for Europe in light of the wave of migrants and asylum seekers that have arrived in the continent in recent years. Many European countries have already exhausted their capacity to absorb the flow of immigrants….
