The international community is legally bound to protect those who are being forced to flee their homes by conflict and persecution. Given Europe’s history and values – not to mention its proximity to some of the beleaguered populations – it has a special obligation to contribute to this effort.
国际社会有法律义务保护因为冲突和迫害而被迫离开家园的人。从欧洲的历史和价值观看——更不用说其毗邻受困人口的地理位置了——它有着为此做出贡献的特殊责任。
