The U.N. estimates that more than 4 million people have fled Syria, mostly to neighboring Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.Some European countries have big pressure from the part of people seeling a better life on the pld continent. “Asking Italy and Greece to do their homework on immigration is like asking countries hit by floods to increase production of umbrellas,” said to the media Foreign Minister Paolo Gentilon in Italy. This was the answer for the French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve who said EU founding countries like France and Germany have to convince their partners to do more. The flow of desperate migrants from Syria and North Africa hoping to reach Europe is much higher than in the same period in 2014. The number of migrants reaching Greece by sea had reached 158,000 by mid-August, according to the UN.
