"Madam President, I voted in favour of establishing the European Refugee Fund, even though each Member State is individually responsible for its own refugee policy. Furthermore, Member States should continue to be responsible in this way, but we also need European-wide coordination, as, in many respects, the influx of refugees has been uncontrolled. We need the system of resettlement that is mentioned in this proposal. Above all, however, the basis of our actions must be that we, as Europeans, support countries from which those people are arriving, in their efforts to establish democracy, because it is not good for anyone to have to leave their homeland and their roots. The basic approach should be that we work towards the resettlement in their home districts of people arriving from these countries under threat, building democracy there, and exporting European values there. As I said, however, in this situation, in which we have an uncontrolled immigration policy at European Union level, we need coordination. Nevertheless, Member States must retain their own decision-making powers regarding the number of immigrants each country admits."@en1
