Well over 2,500 migrants and refugees have been forced to sleep rough in Bosnia-Herzegovina for several weeks – on the European Union’s doorstep – despite the fact that suitable sheltered accommodation is available.
In an interview with UN News’s Daniel Johnson, Peter Auweraert, chief of mission in Bosnia for the UN Migration Agency IOM, describes the difficulties of trying to find a quick solution to the urgent problem.
He also explains why it is so important that all countries abide by their international commitments to helping vulnerable people, in line with the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, adopted by a majority of UN Member States in December 2018.
