"Congratulations to my fellow Member, Mr Tavares, on his excellent work. Finally, an agreement has been reached with the Council, a process that was too long, owing to the inexplicable deadlock in the Council. The thousands of refugees living through humanitarian tragedy needed greater speed from the Council, as they waited in camps, the majority of which are in sub-human conditions, and ran the risk of feeding human trafficking networks. The European Refugee Fund should deliver funding for actions in the interests of the EU as a whole, but also actions at international or merely national level. The reception and protection systems of a number of Member States have been drastically put to the test, owing to the unexpected arrival of a large number of people requiring international protection, particularly from countries like Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Tunisia and Côte d’Ivoire. It is crucial that the Member States be able to make use of EU funds to improve their reception systems and to encourage resettlement by the Member States. At a time when the lack of solidarity between the Member States has been notorious, it is crucial to adopt measures to ensure that effort is shared between them in a balanced way with regard to receiving refugees and displaced persons, and to bearing the consequences of this reception."@en1
