On September 22, 2015, European Union leaders agreed to relocate 120,000 people in dire need of international protection who had arrived or were arriving in Greece and Italy en route to other EU states over the next two years. The decision observed that this number corresponded to approximately 43 per cent of the total number of third-country nationals who were in clear need of international protection and who entered Italy and Greece irregularly in July and August 2015; and also that this plan constituted fair burden sharing between Italy and Greece on the one hand, and the remaining Member States on the other, given the overall available figures on irregular border crossings in 2015

Abstract

On September 22, 2015, European Union leaders agreed to relocate 120,000 people in dire need of international protection who had arrived or were arriving in Greece and Italy en route to other EU states over the next two years. The decision observed that this number corresponded to approximately 43 per cent of the total number of third-country nationals who were in clear need of international protection and who entered Italy and Greece irregularly in July and August 2015; and also that this plan constituted fair burden sharing between Italy and Greece on the one hand, and the remaining Member States on the other, given the overall available figures on irregular border crossings in 2015
