The issue of the Mediterranean migration is one that must be taken into careful consideration. Thousands (60,000) have fled from their countries due to government crisis or extreme financial hardship (Taylor). These people have managed to get passed numerous checkpoints, travel long distances with limited supplies, and get on compacted ships that will help take them across the Mediterranean. These people have risked everything, it is without a doubt that these migrants are desperate for a change. Many have already died in the process of immigrating. About 1,800 are reported dead (Taylor). An article claims that the death toll of migrants in the mediterranean has reached closed to the numbers from 2014 and the peak of the migration season has not yet started. European countries are giving some aid, however many neglect these migrants because they are uninterested in taking care of them as citizens. 60,000 people is a large number of people for countries like Italy to intake. They believe that if such a high number of migrants enter the country then economic stability is at risk.

After reading the articles about the Mediterranean crisis it became clear to me that the only solution is for European nations to accept these migrants. Although the number of migrants is a large sum, the other solutions such as improving the situation in foreign countries is nearly impossible. There are many European nations that are in need of migrant importation. Such nation includes Germany. Germany has many job opportunities. Over the years, it statistics have shown that the German population has been declining. The genuine German race are dieing much more frequent than the birth rate. Therefore, a nation like Germany can, without a doubt, take a large portion of migrants without noticing a negative impact in their economy. In fact, an improvement of the German economy can be the result from a large intake of migrants. The migrants will help speed up production in the nation.

There are many wonderful images I found in an article online. The images emphasize the struggle that the Mediterranean migrants are undergoing in order to search for a happier life.
