The situation screams “emergency” – and has triggered a response by the EU. Most notably, the EU has tripled the budget of Operation Triton, designed to strengthen border security; launched an EU-wide naval operation against human smugglers and traffickers in the Mediterranean (EUNAVFOR Med); and allocated additional funds to overwhelmed frontline member countries.
目前局势时时处处昭示着“紧急”——欧盟也因此采取了措施。最引人注目的是，欧盟已将海卫行动的预算增加了三倍，目的是加强边境安全；在地中海启动了欧洲范围内针对 走私贩运人口的海军行动（EUNAVFOR Med）；并为不堪重负的一线会员国划拨了额外的资金。
