tary measures will follow so that the circumstances that created the
refugee crisis can be dealt with properly.

As thousands of innocent people are fighting high seas to reach
their destination, debating who will guard the borders and how to
prevent the refugees from coming, or making borders impassable
through inhumane methods, would inflict irreparable damage upon
Europe; such attitudes would lead to moral disgrace and strip it of its
humanity. Those who would simply leave people to die will lose a
part of that which is what makes us human; the ability to comprehend
the suffering of others and to take action to help such people rebuild
their lives. Kicking someone when they're down is hardly a commen-

dable behavior. Europe should listen to its heart, open its borders,
ensure safe passage to the refugees and put an end to human rights
violations so that the refugee problem can be solved. The EU countri-
es know very well that the right to seek asylum is a basic human
rights and therefore they should immediately revoke any legal regu-
lations that prevent these refugees from settling in the country of their
choice. According to the Geneva Treaty of 1951, the refugees should

be able to enjoy all the rights in the countries they are based.
Clearly, the European Union, with its population of 503 million,
can quite easily distribute a couple of million refugees across the con-

tinent with sound planning. Furthermore, it can easily offer them
education, employment, the opportunity to open small businesses
and assist them in becoming contributing members of the society.

Being indifferent to this crime against humanity, which we are
witnessing on an almost daily basis, is clearly wrong. It is important
that an urgent action plan is prepared to protect the lives of refugees,
to put humanitarian aid programs into action and to take all the
necessary steps so that this horrible tragedy ends once and for all.
