EU: Migrant people pipeline and quota plan

EU leaders will relocate 120,000 migrants across the continent, even though Romania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary voted against a mandatory quota scheme. Pray for the toxic atmosphere around the quota system to be replaced by policies the EU countries can implement to help each other, rather than blaming each other. Pray for those leaders angry that their governments were outvoted on the issue of relocating refugees. As EU leaders are in disarray over what to do next, chaos on the ground has changed to an orderly means of transporting migrants from country to country. Migrants are travelling from Turkey to Austria, passing through Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia and Hungary through what has become a relatively efficient people's pipeline from southern into central and on to northern Europe, but this is no long-term solution to Europe's migration conundrum.
