British Prime Minister David Cameron addresses the press on refugee crisis and on the situation in Syria. He announced that the UK needed to step up their action against the Islamic state group in Syria and Iraq, but also the security on the British soil to prevent terror attacks. He also declared that "UK will resettle 20.000 extra Syrian refugees".

The vast majority of refugees currently don’t come anywhere near western Europe. Indeed, the UNHCR points out that 86% of all refugees are in developing countries. That’s a dramatic surge from 70% just around a decade ago. About one in four refugees are from Syria: 95 out of every 100 of them are in a neighbouring country. Turkey – whose GDP per capita is about four times less than that of Britain – hosts nearly 1.6 million refugees, more than any other country. Lebanon, which has a population of less than 4.5 million, has up to 1.5 million Syrian refugees. Countries with far fewer resources than Britain are taking in many more refugees.
