France and Germany have made a proposal to countries that have no interest in a migrant invasion of their borders. The proposed plan goes like this: if you are not interested in open borders and in supporting the UN Migration Pact, then you can buy your way out of it — i.e., pay up and show solidarity with the rest of Europe. The signing of the Pact is around the corner, with a number of countries opting out: Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Australia, and Italy have all rejected the Pact. Outside of Europe, the U.S. and Israel have rejected it.
According to a document circulated in Brussels, the alternative plan for the “migrant-averse” would still force responsibility for migrants upon them in the form of offering them exceptions, deemed to be “alternative measures of solidarity.” These countries are being asked to do their part and pay into a plan for “development projects in Africa” in order to help stem flow of migrants to Europe. No mention of migrants from the Middle East. Information is vague about this payout proposal as the EU scrambles to rescue the UN Migration Pact, which is scheduled to be signed on the 10-11th in Morocco, and is a central part of its plan to populate Europe with a swarm of unvetted migrants from Africa and the Middle East.
Recall that during the summer, the European Commission dragged Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic to the European Court of Justice for refusing to take in their quotas of refugees. Those countries adamantly maintained a united front against Brussels. The EU Parliament then voted to “punish Hungary” over trumped-up accusations of “backsliding on democracy, the rule of law and human rights.” Hungarian leader Viktor Orban has been leading the charge in defending his country and the Visegrad group in solidarity against the migrant invasion. Austria then joined in to support the Visegrad Group against the Muslim migrant influx. The movement toward preserving national sovereignty has since gained traction in other EU countries.
Germany, France and the Netherlands had previously demanded solidarity from all EU states, but now appear more open to others buying out of the refugee distribution scheme.
It doesn’t look as if they have much choice. EU globalists are now appearing to be desperate as opposition to their plans has multiplied. Ineffectual threats to the so-called “anti-migrant” EU countries that stood up to Brussels’ bullying and refused migrant quotas, and which are now rejecting the UN migration Pact, have contributed to this last-ditch effort to bring opposing countries into line. But looking at the state of France and Germany, it is unlikely that non-compliant EU countries will agree to pay the EU merely for the sake of “solidarity.” To do so would be tantamount to agreeing to pay a penalty to maintain their own sovereignty.
“EU proposal would see migrant-averse countries show ‘solidarity’ by paying up,” Reuters, December 6, 2018:
European Union governments that refuse to host refugees could instead pay to be excused from the bloc’s system of sharing out migrants, France and Germany proposed on Thursday as they sought to end a long-running EU feud over migration.
According to a document circulated to EU interior ministers in Brussels and seen by Reuters, the plan would still make hosting migrants an obligation for the bloc’s governments, but exceptions could be made if countries made “alternative measures of solidarity.”
That EU language is code for paying into the EU budget or paying toward development projects in Africa, diplomats said, and seeks to end divisions between EU states such as Germany, which are willing to take in refugees, and eastern countries such as Hungary, who reject granting asylum.
Mediterranean arrivals of migrants and refugees are below 100,000 people so far this year, according to UN data, but the 2015 influx that caught the bloc unprepared has hardened southern and eastern EU governments against migration.
The document said the European Union would need a proper mechanism to avoid a situation in which all EU governments opted to pay their way out of any hosting responsibilities and would set an eight-year period for any arrangements.
UN conference on migration next week
European Parliament President Antonio Tajani said in October more development money for Africa could be an acceptable compromise for eastern, formerly communist EU states that are refusing entry to refugees, mainly from Muslim countries.Germany, France and the Netherlands had previously demanded solidarity from all EU states, but now appear more open to others buying out of the refugee distribution scheme, which was first set out by the European Commission in a series of proposals 2015…..

It seems the UN is a major problem. Ditch the UN. I have been advocating this for years. The avarice of the various nations toward richer nations is abhorrent and disgusting.
Get us out of the UN and get the UN off of our shores. Go. Go! Go!! Git!

The inexorable Newspeak creep. Words that are no longer allowed to mean what we all know they mean:
racism, white, privilege, phobia, paedophilia, …and now, solidarity. What have I missed?
I’m waiting for feminists to redefine “rape” so it’s no longer what Muslim rapists do, and so that feminists can get a break from all the flack they’ve been getting for their silence on FGM, Shari’a oppression of women, Iranian women’s actions against the hijab, Linda Sarsour’s thuggery and terrorist support, and, of course, Muslim rape gangs.

Shameful to say, the Scandinavians have as usual obeyed the “FührerBefehl” from Merkel in Berlin.
They dare not refuse to sign against the last will of “Her Imperial German Highness” before shes get lost.
Her last words before disappearing should appropriately be “Wir schafften das nicht”.

The U.N. is welcome to go to hell as far as I’m concerned. They drag out crises, browbeat western nations to give money for the third world U.N. administrators to steal. (e.g. Kofi Annan’s son was put in charge of selling Iraqi oil during the embargo. The money was to be limited to humanitarian purposes. Annan lined his pockets by selling more oil than was allowed. His punishment? He got rich and lives like a king in New York.)

The UN has long ago capitulated to the despotic and tyrannical leaders of nations that are mostly Islamic. Those nations have taken in very few migrants from their own regions and in fact want to rid themselves of their own citizens that are opposed to the regimes or are criminals.
This mass migration of convenience serves two purposes, it rids their countries of troublemaking citizens and helps in the revenge Jihad against western nations.
Now they have control of the UN these despots and dictators are ratcheting up the anty, and going for broke by demanding that the west signs onto this Compact on Migration, which will end up destroying western nations and providing a vaccuum in which Islam can grow and eventually take complete control.
The west will become a third world hellhole of a magnitude not seen since the dark ages. Perfect for Islam which can only thrive in such conditions.
Those of us in Canada have the opportunity to tell Trudeau and his disastrous government how disgusted we are that he is salivating at the opportunity to sign the death warrant of our once great country.

First of all France and Germany didn’t give a dame about their own people. Those two countries only paid attention after the fact. France for example, was attacked Emanuel Marcon didn’t learn from the lesson the the terrorists are the ones to blame. Those countries who take terrorism as may as well put their head in the sand.

I think it is a perfectly reasonable demand. Japan has taken in only 27 refugees this year, but it has spent half a billion dollars on relief for refugees in the Middle East.
Objecting to alien invasion is reasonable, but refusing to pay for the upkeep of victims of war and other calamities who live elsewhere is unconscionable, as long as you can afford it.
eduardo odraude says
Agreed, provided it is truly only what it seems to be and does not somehow in fact advance EU’s Islamic hijra into Europe or into other non-Muslim nations.

How may news stories have there been that disclose “moslims demand” this or that…an investigation, an arrest, new laws to accommodate them, abolishing of zoning ordinances, an apology, land to build a barracks for war, money, etc.?
moslims make demands. They don’t “ask”…they demand. And they never give in, never apologize, never accept the laws of others.
Now, the countries that have taken in so many moslims that the citizens are drowning in murders, rapes, terror attacks, FGM, …all the evil trappings of islam…are *demanding* other countries that have refused to allow the takeover by moslims pay for the moslim takeover.
Demanding! it’s what moslims do. If one gives in to their demands, more demands follow.
Reminds of the Bible verse where Jesus said, “Simon, Simon, satan has demanded to have you men to sift you as wheat (Luke 22:31).”
Like father…like sons…children of the devil behave as he behaves, demand as he demands.

Hi Christine,
Great article as usual.
Australia isn’t in Europe so it should be listed in your ‘Outside of Europe ..” sentence with the US and Israel :).
And while the current conservative government of Australia has rejected the compact, there will be a federal election next year and it could be a very different story if the Labor/Green parties win government. Just yesterday in the Australian Parliament the opposition tried to weaken Australia’s current deterrent regime – they were defeated but it is a sign of where things will go if they win government next year.

The goal of the migration pact is to make people in decent societies slaves in their own countries by moving barbarians and would be killers, and enslavers into the ountries of decent people.Groups whose culture is entirely opposed to others should not have aliens imposed upon them by aliens.
