"Madam President, I too am deeply outraged by the tragic fate of the migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa. I support the proposal for the European Parliament to join those demanding that the Egyptian authorities review their policy towards migrants and people traffickers. However, I do not want it to be said again that we notice the problems of others while ignoring our own. I would like to emphasise above all that not every refugee is a political refugee. Many are fleeing for religious reasons and most are social migrants. Do we know how many of these migrants perished last year on the borders of Europe - or the Schengen borders, if you prefer? Piecemeal measures cannot prevent people being treated like commodities. In today’s world, rich nations, states and regions have a specific responsibility - a responsibility for the development of poor countries, so that there will be no reason to flee Sub-Saharan Africa, whether for social, religious or political reasons."@en1
