Migrants Calais claiming 50 million euros in compensation – The Tribune.fr

The Mayor of Calais Natacha Bouchart (Republicans) called Wednesday in London and Paris financial compensation for the damage suffered economically in her by her city, crossing to England where thousands of migrants hurry.

“I ask 50 million because it is difficult to assess the economic damage we suffer for more than 15 years,” pleaded Natacha Bouchart, hammering that ” if today we are able to put a euro in safety and euro in humanity, we are able to put a euro at the economic “.

This call comes on the eve of a visit by Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve and his British counterpart Theresa May on the Eurotunnel site at which an enhanced cooperation agreement must be reached.

“If there were no favorable response, I see myself forced to file complaints against governments” French and British, she added.

Paris and London have ensured during the summer they made the resolution of the crisis of migrants “their top priority” after a series of massive intrusion attempts via the Channel Tunnel.

In late July, Eurotunnel has called the French and British states compensation of 9.7 million euros to offset security costs and operating losses related to the pressure migration in Calais.
