Recent events in the Middle East mean many citizens need a safe route back to Europe.

Here is what we are doing to help, through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism:

🔹 We are helping EU countries organise repatriation flights.
🔹 6 flights have already brought citizens back to 🇧🇬, 🇮🇹, 🇦🇹, and 🇸🇰.
🔹 We are planning more flights over the coming days to help even more people return home.

The safety of Europeans is always our first priority.

@EUCommission How about establishing safe routes into the EU for people seeking refuge here?
@huskeyb @EUCommission How about you vote for it? It's not only a minority view in most parts of Europe, it's definitely not what most Germans voted for. The national governments control the EU. The one I voted for is in the minority (probably alone on this issue actually), the German government is against it because so are most German voters.
