I can only support the resolution we have just adopted on the increase in the draft budget for the management of migration and refugee flows following the events in North Africa. Precisely because this is one of the everyday problems we are facing at present, there is an acute need for strong and determined action that sees the whole of Europe united in its development and support and that rules out any other approach. In future, we should prevent situations such as those which occurred in Italy a few months ago, when the country was confronted with an uncontrollable situation, with an island such as Lampedusa being invaded by men, women and children fleeing a disastrous, war-torn environment. In those few days, the concept of European solidarity wavered, when it should instead be one of our priorities. Common, concerted action, with EU resources to manage migration flows, will not only benefit the coastal regions of the Mediterranean, but will also be an effective means of helping all the Member States."@en1
