"Madam President, while we have been sitting in the Chamber, the scenes at the Hungarian-Serbian border are truly shocking. The contrast between what we have been discussing, which is the inability for some Member States to relocate 120 000 refugees, and the fact that tens of thousands of refugees would have gone into Lebanon in the last three or four days, is truly extraordinary. What a contrast to see this.
Everyone from all parts of the political spectrum in this Chamber should see what these images are saying about the European Union. Those like Angelika Niebler, who just now said that we should please act together, should understand that this is now about the European Union and the ability for us to follow the Commissioner and his plans and the Presidency, which is well organised. At 3 o’clock, even Parliament realised that it must vote tomorrow because the Member States in the minority were not acting.
Everything is there for us to do, but we have not done it because of those Member States. We were not born yesterday: we know who is blocking this. Let us unblock it, do something and stop the shame of Europe and those who think they know better. They do not know better. We must act together and act quickly on this refugee crisis."@en1
