France’s Macron Calls on EU Leaders to Work Together to Fight Islamist Terror
(Worthy News) – French President Emmanuel Macron hosted a virtual mini-summit on Tuesday in a bid to win broader European support for hardening borders in the wake of several Islamist terror attacks.
While Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz joined him in person in Paris, calling in remotely were German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, European Council president Charles Michel and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen.
Macron told reporters afterwards the leaders pledged to work closely to find solutions to the terror problem. He’s proposing reviewing the Schengen accord that enables visa-free travel among 26 countries, developing common databases of migrants entering Europe from the south or east, and increasing the exchange of information and cooperation among E.U. member-states. The participants also discussed ways of strengthening controls at the bloc’s external borders. [ Source: CNS News (Read More…) ]
