The President of the Czech Republic, Miloš Zeman, warned that the problem with refugee quotas is not only that some members of the European Union reject them, but primarily that refugees and immigrants to some European countries simply will not, refugees are also rejected by these quotas. "Attention! Refugees are not going to the Czech Republic, but to Europe in general. We have too little social assistance for them to come to us voluntarily. Now 80 percent of immigrants are from Africa, so not people from Middle Eastern countries, but from Africa," he said. Zeman last night in a regular weekly interview for private television Barandov. According to the Czech president, the problem is that the EU is trying to impose refugees on the Czech Republic that the Czech Republic is not even interested in. "They are trying to force us refugees that we are not interested in. It's not just that we don't want them. That's one side of the matter. But they don't want us. They want to go to Germany or Sweden, countries where there is a high standard and social assistance," he said. is Zeman. The president of the Czech Republic would grant asylum to "guest workers" from Ukraine instead of refugees from the Middle East or Africa. "Most of the asylum requests are from Ukraine. I have nothing against granting them asylum because I think they are valuable and would enrich our labor market," Zeman said.
