EU Council President Donald Tusk has called a Summit to discuss the migration and refugee crisis in Europe, next Wednesday 23rd at 18.00h.

The meeting comes in the light of a number of issues being faced by Europe, after also having been called for by a number of EU leaders including German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Recently, the European Commission called on EU leaders to relocate an extra 120,000 refugees from Italy, Greece and Hungary, in addition to the 40,000 agreed upon earlier this year.
