I have learned that the Prime minister in the UK, David Cameron does not think there is an answer that can be achieved simply by taking in more and more refugees. He want to grab the root of the problem, which is in the homeland of the refugees. He will make sure there are worthwhile jobs and stronger economies in these countries. Yet has he suggested a target of 10,000 refugees being taken by the UK.
I have also learned the difference between refugees and economic migrants. Refugees are people who had to escape from their home country because they have suffered or
feared. Race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or
political opinion are typical reasons why. Economic migrants seek an improvement in
living standards by immigrating to another region. This is often provided of living conditions or job
opportunities.
Frontex is an
agency of the European Union or a “filter”, to detect and stop illegal
immigration, human trafficking and terrorist infiltration.
People trafficking
is the trade of humans. Mostly used for sexual slavery, forced labor or
commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others. They are exposed
for forced marriage and the extraction of organs. Human traffickers do also smuggle
refugees across borders.
