The Rocky Road to Globalization

Refugees may be the first issue that the world has to deal with as a whole.

EU members are considering a call from the European Commission for mandatory refugee quotas for each country – as the bloc looks to find a solution to the influx of migrants.

Syria’s neighbors have been dealing with this refugee crisis for much longer.

For its part – Jordan’s king says the country has taken in 1.4 million people who’ve fled the Syrian civil war.

Jordan’s Queen Rania discussed Jordan’s contribution to the crisis.

“I think as an international community this is no longer a Middle East problem nor is it exclusivity European dilemma.  This is for the whole international community to deal with and we need to come together for collective action. We need to come up with a comprehensive and cohesive policy in order to deal with this,” she said.
