Up to 1m people have fled their homes to escape violence, persecution in north-west #Syria. We urge all countries to respect their right to asylum, especially EU States which currently host a tiny fraction of forcibly displaced people despite the region’s plentiful resources. 1/3
Crucially, the EU & its member states must share responsibility with Greece, where most refugees are now hosted in dire situations, for those arriving and support them to rebuild their lives. 2/3 
It is critical that all states live up to both the letter and the spirit of the Refugee Convention and not use the suffering of people as a geopolitical bargaining chip. #SyriaCrisis #HumanRights 3/3
