Hillary Clinton says European leaders need to find ways to limit immigration flows because inaction on the continent was driving right-wing populism.
“I think Europe needs to get a handle on migration because that is what lit the flame,†Clinton told the Guardian in an interview published Thursday.
“I admire the very generous and compassionate approaches that were taken particularly by leaders like Angela Merkel, but I think it is fair to say Europe has done its part, and must send a very clear message — ‘we are not going to be able to continue provide refuge and support’ — because if we don’t deal with the migration issue it will continue to roil the body politic," she said.
Europe has been plagued by a migrant crisis, in part instigated by political upheaval in Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia, since 2015.
