Refugees fleeing to Europe "share our values"

World Questions

Available for over a year

Frans Timmermans, first vice president of the European Commission, says it's important to understand that people fleeing to Europe are fleeing because they share European values, not because they want to destroy Europe. He was speaking during World Questions, recorded shortly after the Paris attacks of 13 November, 2015.
