A Swedish Member of the European Parliament (MEP) has pointed the finger at EU members for their reluctance to resolve the problem of migrants’ safer passage to Europe.<\/p>\n
Sweden’s Member of the European Parliament Cecilia Wikstr\u00f6m has blamed EU countries for doing little to ensure migrants’ safe passage to Europe, the Swedish news website the Local reported.<\/p>\n
According to Wikstr\u00f6m, EU member states’ current support on the issue is so scanty that Sweden’s younger generation may liken their actions to “turning a blind eye to the Holocaust”.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the MEP, who has repeatedly called for migrants’ “legal and safe routes to Europe”, told the Swedish TV network SVT that the younger generation would compare the EU’s stance on the matter to the policy of appeasement in World War II.<\/p>\n
