Such mass migration will severely hurt already strained social relations in some countries and lead to unpredictable consequences. Only a coordinated global response can guarantee that in the long run people from the poorest billion will visit Europe as tourists and business partners, not as asylum seekers.
贫穷绝不只是‘他们的’问题，同样必须引起‘我们的’关注。如果发展中国家垮掉的话，就会有数百万人来敲我们的门，而他们的首选避难所就是欧洲。如此大规模的移民迁徙会严重损害某些国家本已紧张的社会关系，引发不可预知的后果。只有协调一致的全球对策才能确保从长远来看最贫困的十亿人会来欧洲旅游和做生意，而不是寻求避难。
