"I voted for this parliamentary report on ‘Migration flows arising from instability: scope and role of EU foreign policy’ and I want to focus on a number of aspects contained in this report. Nearly 24 000 Tunisians have arrived on the island of Lampedusa and on Italy’s shores since the fall of President Ben Ali, and thousands of Libyans have also fled their war-torn country since February. We absolutely need a European response and European solidarity in the face of this unfolding human drama. Our report calls for a system of solidarity regarding the resettlement of refugees from North Africa. Our report calls for the ‘solidarity clause’ to be applied between Member States with regard to policies on border controls, asylum and immigration. Our report also asks for the post-2013 budget to include a provision on emergency funds for a rapid response to immigration and asylum in Europe. All these aspects are necessary in a genuine European asylum policy, which we have long been calling for and which must be based on the principles of coherence, responsibility, solidarity and respect for human rights."@en1
