"Mr President, there are people at flight everywhere around the world. Unknown cruelties in protracted wars, the growing influence of Islam. There is a lot to flee from. The Dutch Freedom Party is in favour of these refugees being accommodated in their own region. In that case, both the physical distance and the cultural distance are kept to a minimum.
I would also point out that the Convention on Refugees states that refugees should apply for asylum in the first safe country. I would also point out that the Convention on Refugees states that refugees should apply for asylum in the first safe country. That way, the uprooting which occurs when someone flees is as limited as possible and the process of integration – necessary if return is not possible – is thereby helped.
However, Mr President, now we are talking about the resettlement of refugees. It is a foolish plan to resettle in the EU, for example, Afghan refugees in Turkey or Somali refugees in Ethiopia. Brussels even wants to pick up the bill for this, and that payment, Mr President, is a mistaken kind of encouragement. Not only will it nowhere near cover the costs, but that money could be much better and much more effectively spent in the regions where these refugees are received. And that, Mr President, ensures better help for even more refugees."@en1
