Pope Francis Calls on European States to Assimilate Migrants

The European countries should accept and assimilate migrants instead of creating ghettos, Pope Francis said in an interview with El Pais newspaper.

 The supreme pontiff said that Europeans' negligence has led to emergence of ghettos all around the EU.

"The process of integration should be started … when the integration does not happen, ghettos arise. That is nobody’s fault, but practically it exists. The people, who caused the catastrophe in Zaventem [airport] were born in Belgium. But they lived in an reclusive district of migrants," Pope Francis said.

Italy and Greece are the outstanding examples of accepting migrants even during the difficulties inside the countries, Pope Francis added.
