Que l’Europe retrouve le sens de l’hospitalité. Une demande irlandaise

La réception des ambassadeurs à Dublin (crédit : présidence Irlandaise)

(B2) Dans son discours aux ambassadeurs, le président de la République irlandaise, Michael D. Higgins, a averti aujourd’hui (27 janvier) les Européens du risque que présentait pour l’Europe la crise des réfugiés. Un risque qui n’est pas uniquement celui de Schengen ou du principe de libre circulation, avertit-il. Mais tout simplement nos valeurs (*).

« The risk is not just that this refugee crisis has the potential to undermine Schengen and the principle of free circulation within the European Union. It also has the potential to undermine the values at the basis of that humanistic spirit to which Europeans recommitted themselves after the devastation of WWII. The issue of migration touches upon some of the most divisive and sensitive aspects of European identity: our relationship to the outside world, to the South, and to the Muslim world »

Avec « humilité », le président irlandaise se permet d’insister demandant à tous « nos ambassadeurs européens ici de faire tout ce qui est en leur pouvoir de faire que cette crise devienne une opportunité de raviver un ethos européen de dignité humaine, liberté et solidarité, une opportunité peut-être de forger une cohérente politique commune sur l’asile. Je leur demande de donner un sens à ce qui est un concept partagé dans toutes les croyances et les cultures: l’hospitalité. »

« Again I would, with humility, urge all of our European Ambassadors here to do everything that is in their power to ensure that this crisis becomes an opportunity to rekindle a European ethos of human dignity, freedom and solidarity; an opportunity – perhaps – to forge a coherent common policy on asylum. I urge them to give meaning to the most shared concept across all belief systems and cultures – ‘hospitality’; ‘care for the stranger not yet a friend. »

(Nicolas Gros-Verheyde)

(*) NB : Il ne s’agit pas que d’un discours. L’Irlande a montré un certain sens de la solidarité. le gouvernement irlandais (qui ne fait pas partie de l’espace Schengen) a offert de participer volontairement au processus de relocalisation et a aussi envoyé plusieurs navires en Méditerranée, durant six mois, permettant le sauvetage de 8.500 personnes ces derniers mois (selon Dublin), soit quasiment autant que la seule marine allemande….
