‘Future of EU does not depend on migration summit,’ says Dutch prime minister

Europe is not ready for a new stream of migrants in line with the number of arrivals in 2015, Dutch prime minister Mark Rutte said on Thursday, ahead of the start of the two-day EU summit on migration issues in Brussels. Despite the build-up to the meeting, Rutte refused to describe it as ‘the mother of all summits’ on which the future of the EU depends, as some commentators have suggested. ‘This is an important summit and we have a serious problem in Europe – a political problem,’ he said. 

The number of people arriving in Europe is much lower than a few years ago but there are ‘big political questions in Italy, in Germany, in the EU as a whole’, the Dutch prime minister said. ‘We are not ready if the number [of migrants] starts increasing again, so in that sense it is a very important summit. It would be good if this evening we can bring about a sense of calm. But I don’t expect a total solution which means we will never have to talk about migration again,’ Rutte said.

 ‘What could be done at the meeting is to make agreements about the first stream of people coming from Africa and about how Europe can cope with them,’ Rutte told broadcaster NOS.

Senators vote through ban on burqa in government buildings, hospitals

https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2018/06/senators-vote-through-ban-on-burqa-in-government-buildings-hospitals/

 Dutch senators on Tuesday voted in favour of bringing in a ban on wearing a burqa or other face-covering clothing on public transport, in government buildings and in schools and hospitals. The vote in favour comes 13 years after a burqa ban was first mooted. The ban includes a €400 fine for people who cover their faces in government buildings. Senators expressed concern that the new law is purely symbolic and will have a severe impact on the few hundred women who wear a burqa or nikab in the Netherlands. Nevertheless, a clear majority voted in favour of the ban. Home affairs minister Kajsa Ollongren will now discuss with the police and other officials when the bill should come into effect. Ollongren’s party D66 was the only one of the four government coalition parties to vote against the ban. The SP, PvdA and GroenLinks also voted against.

Bengali people,living in Maungdaw township,also are utilized to carry drug by paying some

monies.

On the other hand,Myanmar Army and Myanmar Politicians' confidants are intentionally distributing drugs among the Arakanese Youths whom Myanmar does not want to be great

So that Arakanese Youths will never ever attempt to regain freedom from Myanmar colony.

That is all about
