EUROPEAN UNION - We will have to accommodate the flow of refugees

In addition to being inhumane, close your eyes is useless. In reality, all that can still make the European Union is preparing to host it right - for a limited time - Libyan refugees. In order to succeed this balancing act, it would be a prima ballerina, not a Minister of the Interior. Admittedly, Maria Fekter just imposed new restrictions in Austria of the rights of foreigners.

But that will not allow him to pump the influx of refugees from North Africa. If a mass exodus occurs, the Europeans will have no choice but to welcome refugees and appropriately allocated among member countries as fairly as possible. As in the past Austria during the wars of Yugoslavia, this time Italy will be on the front line to organize the care of immediate needs.

Then, each EU country will receive its quota of refugees. The problem lies in the concept of "responsibility". There are multiple reasons for this. The fact that fear of Europeans facing a massive influx of foreigners is greater than their compassion for the victims of a dictatorial regime can not be ignored.

With a little goodwill, however, it is conceivable that a greater or lesser Libyan refugees return home after the return to calm or, as was the case with many nationals from the Balkans, continue their road to other continents. But the fact is that aversion outweighs the good. This results from two problems: firstly, the insane foreign policy of the Europeans vis-à-vis an eccentric dictator and, secondly, domestic political dismal many member states that swing between immigration necessary, but alarmism mismanaged and systematic, even manipulated, to foreign countries.

Many Europeans, first and foremost the Italians and Maltese, were compromised in a shamelessly disgusting market with Gaddafi. The Libyan dictator had openly demanded billions of euros from the EU to hold Africa (and thus far the EU) economic refugees from the Maghreb countries. It is said that policymakers had to be very naive or conceited to think seriously that they could derive sustainable benefit of this odious bargain.

At the same time, illegal African hired for seasonal crops have been cases of many countries for years. Like Austria, which is still the economy of a real solution for nurses and home help, and prefers to use stratagems by precarious work in black nurses from Slovakia or Ukraine. The root causes lie elsewhere: there are few countries that make a clear distinction between refugees and migrants.

And there are few policies that acknowledge openly that turned thumbs for years on the issue of immigration control. In the absence of a baby boom to come (and these things require a certain period of commissioning), Europe can not do without a wave of immigration. Set clear rules on the subject without lapsing into a cynical xenophobia do not seem so simple - and, for once, the Austrian Interior Ministry is not the only sin that point of view there.

The comments of our dear Minister on the role of the Internet, he calls special praise. Where others applaud the cyber-revolutionaries of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and China, Maria Fekter delivers another message: those who want to come here simply to take courses in German at the canvas. This, she said, obviously poses no problem, even in the remotest rural areas.

Maria Fekter is definitely far from the subtlety of a ballet dancer.
