Hier ist deine Chance mit minimalem Aufwand maximales zur Lösung der Flüchtlingsfrage zu erwirken.
Bitte heute vor 16 Uhr den Präsidenten des Europäischen Rates, Donald Tusk unter +32 22815650 anrufen!
Ich habe gerade angerufen und bin sehr, sehr offen und freundliche empfangen worden. Packen mer's !
Dear friends,
On Monday, EU Ministers completely failed to agree to an urgent plan to deal with refugees flooding into Europe. But, if European Council President Tusk calls an Extraordinary Summit, we could get a life-saving agreement in days.
This is a humanitarian emergency and without a plan there is chaos! Germany and Austria have suspended Schengen, and Hungary has closed its borders, but Spain has finally come on board, and Poland is softening its position. The majority of Europe is ready to act, but we are being held hostage by a handful of countries led by Hungary's xenophobic government.
Yesterday, the leaders of Germany and Austria urged Tusk to call a summit. He said he would decide by tomorrow. We have 24 hours to influence him. If we flood him with phone calls, he will feel public support to be the leader Europe needs.
Make an urgent call now -- it's super easy and will only take 2 minutes.
Here's the number: +32 22815650 and below are a few points you can raise:
I am calling to express my support for an urgent Emergency Council Summit to agree on a strong plan.
The EU Ministers' failure to agree on to a fair and modest emergency plan on Monday shows Europe at its worst.
This humanitarian emergency is just going to get worse. Heads of State must meet and agree to a way forward.
There is massive public support for your strong leadership now.
This is urgent -- if the Council cannot get consensus, we call for a decision with a qualified majority.
Make a call! An emergency summit is our best chance to get action. The EC proposal to give sanctuary to 160,000 refugees over the next 2 years is first crucial step. But to get it agreed it has to be taken to the highest political level immediately.
Donald Tusk has the power to convene an extraordinary summit of Heads of Government to agree on the deal. Let's give him massive public support to do it -- Here's the number again:
+32 22815650
Once you have called please send a quick email to info+refugeeplan@avaaz.org and tell us how it went.
With hope and determination,
Luis, Alice, Antonia, Marigona, Luca and the whole Avaaz team
