"We are all devastated about reports of refugees and migrants stranded in the cold and dying of hypothermia in the EU. It does not matter where these people have fled from. No human should be left out in such extreme winter conditions. But Member States on the front line have been left on their own to deal with the consequences. Disappointingly, only 5% have been relocated from Greece and Italy under the EU commitment adopted more than a year ago. Member States must focus on managing refugee movements effectively in accordance with international law, instead of shifting the problem around. The UK Government has not even allowed entry to one single child from Greece under the Dubs Amendment, where currently more than 2 300 unaccompanied are struggling to survive in minus temperatures. Time to act now! There are accusations of mismanagement of EU funds in Greece for the most vulnerable. I urge you, Commissioner, to ensure that there is a monitoring system in place guaranteeing the money goes where it is most needed. The situation is dire. Our response based on solidarity, responsibility sharing and respect for fundamental rights is needed. And we all have a role to play."@en1
