21.09.2015 08:02 "Agro Perspectiva" (Kyiv) —
Time is running out to find a viable solution to Europes refugee crisis, UN Radio says referring to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) report.
As of now, the Agency is urging European countries to quickly come together to find a coherent and united approach to the crisis.
The Agency says with the number of refugees arriving in Europe climbing by the day, the time to find a solution is now going out.
The report says the chaos and confusion that has erupted this week across the Balkans, including in Hungary and on the border between Serbia and Croatia, demonstrates the need for an immediate resolution to the crisis.
«This crisis is not being, at this point, managed. Its not being dealt with by multiple countries. Its being dealt with on an individual basis. Border closings that youre seeing are not a solution to this crisis. For a number of reasons it is now of utmost urgency that proper management of this situation come about,» the UNHCR Spokesman Adrian Edwards says.
Mr. Edwards adds next weeks planned meetings of the Extraordinary Justice and Home Affairs Council and the European Parliament will be critically important for resolving the crisis.
It is to be admitted, over 442,000 refugees have arrived in Europe so far this year. Nearly 3,000 others have died making the journey.
