it's very unfair that the mediterranean states are being saddled with this immigration burden when we all know they were probably heading for countries farther north.
The EU really need to either create an EU fleet to deal with this problem, or allocate much more money and resources to help the mediterranean states. it's not fair to blame Italy for this or expect them to deal with this problem themselves.

This is truly a European problem.

Tragic, those poor people.

Perhaps it is time to be taking a harder line.
Tow them all back to the shores they have left behind, then they might think twice about setting off again.

This is an idea of the journey those from war torn countries face, this quiz is based on escaping from Syria.

countries like italy can't cope with mass migrants. in its country, italians don't like having illegal migrants in its country, with isis next door to them, the rise of the right wing in italy, is growing, it is best they keep them out rather than in.

It's a very difficult issue, you can hardly blame people wanting to make the trip but it is very tough for Italy and there is a big security issue as well, only a couple of months ago IS were stating their intention to use migrant ships from Libya to get their fighters to Europe.

Why would they want to come to Italy? We don't even have work for ourselves.

It is a sad story,I agree with the posts that says it shows how desperate they must be to take such risks like this.

I hope things improve in Italy Vanessa.
I have tentatively been offered a job over there and I may just take off and go for it if the UK is heading out of the EU.

I hope so as well. I worry about my nephews, who will find it very hard to find a job there.

I think there needs to be and probably will soon be a large naval or police presence in the Med from multiple countries to catch these ships and the resources to ship these migrants straight back to there country of origin.If it was done right then it would deter them from attempting these journeys.If people knew it was futile to try aswell as dangerous then hopefully they would think twice.The EU should pay for this since all its members pay into it.It is an EU problem.

This is a sad story, but to be honest no country in Europe can cope with a virtual never ending supply of African migrants who are mostly uneducated and with little or no skills.

They are of no use to these developed European countries and must not be allowed entry.

The EU needs to put into place Euro wide border controls to guard against this.

These potential migrants need to stop thinking they can just relocate to a richer country and all their problems will be solved. They cannot and should strive with help of billions upon billions of pounds of foreign aid to make their own countries prosperous .

They need to stay in their own countries and put their energies into tackling the problems there, not creating more problems for already overstretched European Countries

Some said its cheaper to keep them in a "Big Ship"
until they go home
or onto another nation (Germany I say)

It's not unfair on Mediterranean Countries , just unlucky they are the first Countries that these people encounter.

This is NOT a European problem, this is an African problem these people are African and have no right to ssume they can just all go and live in somebody else's Country.
