ISE-SHIMA, Japan, May 26 (Reuters) - European Council
President Donald Tusk said on Thursday he would like the global
community to show solidarity regarding the refugee crisis and
recognise it is a global problem.
Tusk said he would seek G7 support and commitment
to increasing global assistance for the immediate and long-term
needs of refugees.
"We are aware that because of geography, most of the
responsibility (regarding the refugee crisis) has been and will
be placed on Europe," said Tusk.
"If we (G7) do not take the lead in managing this crisis,
nobody would."
Tusk was speaking at a briefing held shortly before the
Group of Seven summit kicked off later on Thursday. The G7
groups Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the
United States.
