http://bit.ly/2AgSasR The European Commission has described as "unacceptable" plans by Donald Tusk, the European Council president, to scrap mandatory quotas on relocating asylum seekers across the EU. Speaking in Strasbourg on Tuesday (12 December), EU migration commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos, said a note put forward by Tusk ahead of an EU summit is anti-European. "It denies, it ignores, all the work that we have done during the past three years," said Avramopoulos. Avramopoulos said the Tusk paper also undermines "one of the main pillars of the European project, the principle of solidarity".
