Mark rutte actively promotes more EU member states to participate in solving the refugee problem.

On April 23rd, EU leaders held an EU summit in Brussels to solve the problem of illegal immigrants (i.e. refugees). Dutch Prime Minister Rutte said that the Netherlands will prepare to transfer the Dutch Coast Guard aircraft to the Mediterranean for search and rescue until the end of this month. On the issue of refugee asylum, the EU hopes to destroy illegal immigrant ships before they leave the country. In addition, the EU hopes that the AU will set up obstacles in North Africa to prevent refugees from entering Europe. In the next few months, the EU hopes to hold a meeting in Malta to discuss this issue with Africa.

Before the EU special summit, Prime Minister Rutte said: "The Netherlands is willing to do more to prevent new immigration disasters and serve more national interests." At the same time, it also expressed the hope that more EU member states would participate in solving this problem. According to the news of France Radio International 65438+10.7, Dutch Prime Minister Rutte10.7, who officially took over the rotating presidency of the European Council, said that reducing the number of asylum seekers in the EU will be an important goal of the EU in the next six months. At the same time, the cooperation between the EU and Turkey on the refugee issue is not particularly satisfactory.

According to the report, Rutte took over as the rotating chairman of the EU Executive Committee and was responsible for the work in the first half of 20 16. On the 7th, Rutte met with the Executive Committee of EU Affairs to determine the goals and policies for the next six months. Reducing the number of refugees entering Europe is an important issue, especially the cooperation with Turkey on this issue is not particularly satisfactory. Earlier, the EU had agreed to contribute 3 billion euros (about RMB 2149.7 million) to Turkey to solve the problem of refugees flooding into Europe.

At the press conference after the meeting, Rutte said that it is not satisfactory to control the number of refugees entering Europe, and time is pressing to solve the refugee problem. He said that the number of refugees entering Europe in recent months is still quite high, and this cannot continue. It is very important to curb the immigration tide and effectively reduce the number of asylum seekers. An important way is to expand effective external border control. Secondly, he also called on all countries to shoulder the necessary responsibilities, strengthen cooperation and resettle refugees.
