Once again, the Diva takes the liberty of posting an article outside the usual realm for this blog.  See this article from the Guardian: This refugee crisis is too big for Europe to handle – its institutions are broken. The article is very compelling; here is one quote:

The immediate challenge for Europe is crisis management: the fiasco in Budapest is just the European leadership problem in microcosm. There is no coherence, no predictability and no urgency. As with Greece, and with the prolonged debt crisis of southern Europe, the institutions move sluggishly until leaders are forced into making flamboyant gestures, and no solution is ever reached. But, as they struggle to achieve coherence and to show compassion, the EU’s leaders are accumulating much bigger risks.
