"A European Union that does not seek to be Fortress Europe but rather a community of values cannot but be sensitive to the conditions and circumstances of those seeking protection within its borders, as they are the victims of conflicts and political persecution every day. Today the EU is a region in which human rights, individual freedoms and democracy are guaranteed to all those living here by the authorities of the Member States of which it is comprised. Ever since the issue of refugees has begun to be raised, the extent and definition of the concept have been the subject of controversy. That situation continues today. I agree with European efforts to identify the minimum conditions to be met by those seeking refuge in the Union, but I would like to point out the risks of them being too broad, which could give rise to fraud and abuse. Likewise, I do not believe that Member States facing major tensions in their social security systems are in a position to provide generous social benefits to all those that apply, as these run the risk of being or becoming unaffordable."@en1
