Sweden Wants EU to Punish Member States Who Don’t Take Refugees - Bloomberg
'The European country that last year was among the top recipients of refugees relative to its population wants the European Union to punish other member states that fail to honor their burden-sharing pledges. '
'Current rules stipulate that refugees must claim asylum in the first European country they reach. '
'The European Commission in May proposed a more permanent system for relocating refugees across the EU should a gateway country be overwhelmed by arrivals. '
'On a per capita basis, Sweden accepted almost three times as many applications as Germany, whose population is eight times bigger. '
'Sweden introduced ID checks at its borders in January after taking in some 163,000 asylum seekers from war-torn countries like Syria and Iraq. '
