The Secretary of State for Asylum, she says, is doing everything she can to address the reception crisis. But understand, a mayor who replies “200 places for asylum seekers in my home? No ! A dozen, yes, it will be possible”, it is a difficulty in responding to the current crisis. Because almost all the mayors are kicking in, especially one year before the municipal elections. No, really, she is helpless, the Secretary of State. Due to a lack of places, it really does not see how to do anything other than leaving men alone on the street to leave places available for families, thus sitting on the vitriolic opinion of the Council of State and, in doing so, on Right wing state. She is at a loss, Nicole de Moor: the influx of migrants is such that the response to the crisis that Belgium is facing, like other member states, can only be European, she says…
Reception crisis: “Nicole de Moor unravels the very essence of the rule of law”
Enough irony. She is right, Nicole de Moor: the problem is complex and everyone has their share of responsibility in the current fiasco: the municipalities, the Regions, the federal State and Europe. But his words, which betray a resounding admission of failure, are unacceptable, especially since Belgium is lagging behind with 8,500 convictions (!). We cannot invoke the short-term European solution in the management of the influx of asylum seekers either, firstly because Europe has been mired in its contradictions in migration management for a long time. Then, it would be to dismiss with nameless hypocrisy an issue which, in Belgium, is an absolute emergency for reasons of humanity and security. It is up to Belgium, urgently, to unravel the tangle. The Secretary of State must therefore find solutions with the support of Vivaldi, so that a distribution plan can be put in place in a more binding manner. To better distribute responsibilities. This is a question of dignity that is all the more desirable for Belgium since the presidency of the Union will fall to it in January. The Secretary of State must still push to create emergency places, under tents, requisition buildings, create a very large center… Do everything possible to respect the law, in short. “It’s not me, it’s the other, I can’t do anything regarding it” is no longer tenable.
