USPA NEWS - French comic actor Alex Lutz, Initiated by the appeal signed by 66 artists from across the political spectrum, including some that never put their name to petitions. This demonstrates the scale of emotion in civil society about the migrant crisis. They promise to donate their benefits for migrants.

"Never more Aylan on Turkish beaches, in makeshift boats in the Mediterranean or cast stranded trucks on Austrian roads. These children are ours, their parents are our peers, we form one and humanity itself. That's what we thought. And rabies is not settled. We can not stay cooped up in indifference and silence before the tragedy of these men, women and children who die because of being welcomed, victims of barbarism and war in their own countries and withdrawal self in ours. So we have learned nothing from our past and loose reliefs of these tragedies we prefer not to see?“ Said the 66 Artists petition published in Journal Du Dimanche. Europe but also the United States, Canada, Australia and the oil-rich countries of the Arabian peninsula, finally, all those who have recognised the right to interfere in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria on behalf of the values of humanity today must assume the duty of asylum. They must open their borders to refugees and arms that our laws protect, in accordance with the obligations States have subscribed in ratifying the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. " Signed the Group of 66 petition´s artists on Journal Du Dimanche, in a gesture of solidarity with respect to Refugees.

IT IS THE DUTY OF WESTERN GOVERNMENTS TO OVERCOME THESE CONCERNS AND ACT“ SAID THE 66 ARTISTS------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We understand the concerns that this may give rise to our citizens, particularly the most confronted with social difficulties. But we believe it is the duty of Western governments to overcome these concerns and act. The courage and greatness consist precisely to shake the view if necessary to defend the core values “‹“‹of democracy. We dishonour us if we did not do honour to the asylum at the heart of a truly human civilisation. And because we not only want to appeal to the government from the comfort where we operate but to act, because we want under no circumstances give lessons but to commit ourselves, each of the signatories of this appeal provide an integral seal at One of associations active in the country of origin or in the host countries to help refugees as Cimade, France Terre d'Asile, the League of Human Rights, Catholic Relief Services, Save the Children, “Medecins Sans Frontieres“ (Doctors Without Borders), UNICEF, Medicines Du Monde (Doctors of the World), Care International and others. We do not judge those who do not share our opinion, much less those who, sharing it, for whatever reason, are not in a position to help. But we call on all those who can do like us and to join the action to the word humanity.
