Zepp-LaRouche Blasts Cynical EU Policy after Mass Drowning of War Refugees in Mediterranean
PRESS RELEASEZepp-LaRouche Blasts Cynical EU Policy after Mass Drowning of War Refugees in MediterraneanApril 24, 2015 (EIRNS)—Following the tragic drowning of between 700 and 900 refugees fleeing Libya for Europe on April 18, Helga Zepp-LaRouche was asked about the EU policy regarding refugees fleeing war and economic depredation in Africa, during her Wednesday webcast of the party she heads, the Civil Rights Movement-Solidarity (Bürgerrechtsbewegung-Solidarität, BüSo) on April 22. Mrs. Zepp-LaRouche, speaking in German, said she sees for the moment two completely different paradigms behind the reactions to the crisis, and one of them is a form of new fascism. The EU “replaced the “Mare Nostrum” program that was run only by Italy until last year, with a program under which no attempt is even made to save the refugees from the Mediterranean. Instead, the cynical argument goes: “The more people drown, the more it will act as a deterrent to those who would too greatly fear to risk making the trip.”
Mrs. Zepp-LaRouche, has an hour-long live webcast every Wednesday, which can be accessed via the BüSo website at http://bueso.de/webcast. Her April 22 webcast is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OJ6x1eFU5c. |
