Rather, “they will help on the spot to ensure human care,” Kurz said. “We are in talks with the coalition partner about this.” This is not just about Moria, but also about other parts of the world that are not in the media spotlight, said Kurz, who initially reported on his visits to refugee camps in Iraq or Somaliland and his concern about conditions. there.
Moria’s photos do not leave anyone indifferent …
Austria has made a significant contribution since the 2015 refugee crisis, more than almost any other European country.

What we don’t need is token politics,” he said, clearly referring to the Franco-German initiative to host children and young people from Moria.

It was the “terrible images at the Budapest train station” in the summer of 2015 that led to “European politics giving in to pressure and opening up borders,” Kurz said. Then thousands, then tens of thousands, and eventually a million would have left. The smugglers had made huge sums of money, countless people drowned in the Mediterranean, Kurz repeated his argument, which has remained unchanged for five years, and from which he apparently does not want to abandon even under increasing internal political pressure.
In the seven-minute clip, Kurz also turned against the impression that Austria was doing nothing for the refugees. “This year alone Austria took in 3,700 children. That is around 100 children per week who have received a positive asylum decision and have found safety here in Austria.” Kurz did not say that due to border closures, these can practically only be recordings in the context of family reunification.
