TEHRAN - Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani has called on European governments to fulfill their humanitarian duty concerning tens of thousands of refugees who are fleeing their crisis-hit countries. President Rouhani made the remarks in a meeting with new Hungarian ambassador to Tehran, Yanosh Kwach, on Sunday, saying dealing with the refugee crisis is a “great humanitarian mission” assigned to the world and especially Europe. “It is urgent that governments and countries help these refugees,” Rouhani said. The Iranian president welcomed the move by some European countries to take in refugees, saying, “We are happy that some European countries have adopted positive stances to save refugees and hope that all of Europe and the countries that have not joined this process” would follow suit. Rouhani said the current refugee crisis stems from the “threat of violence-seeking extremist groups and terrorism.” “Terrorism has sparked intimidation and fear in the regional countries and [resulted in] the displacement of innocent people,” he said. Rouhani expressed hope that through “determination and collective cooperation,” the entire world would see lasting stability and security. Over the past few days, thousands of asylum seekers have left Hungary, where they had been stuck for days, for Austria and Germany after Berlin and Vienna officials voiced their readiness to receive them.(PressTV)
