Migrant crisis: Migration to Europe explained in graphics
How many people are coming? Where do they come from? What is the plan for their resettlement? And will it work?
A number of questions that have been raised by politicians, decision-makers or anybody living in Europe – or elsewhere. Check out the article of the BBC for a detailed explanation in graphics.
to spark a crisis = to cause a crisis
to struggle to cope with the influx = to have difficulties in dealing with the mass arrival of migrants
some may have passed through the border undetected = not noticed, not discovered
the surge of people arriving = the increase of the number of people arriving
the biggest driver of migration = cause of migration
The UK has opted out of any plans… = it chose not to participate in any plan
asylum seekers and their dependents = asylum seekers and their relatives
the voyage is hazardous = the journey is very dangerous
population density = the number of people living in an area
AND NOW you are ready to read the complete article of the BBC here.
