France has rejected a request by Britain to prevent refugees from making dangerous sea voyages into their country.
Refugees from France to Britain are trying different types. Thus the casualties have all occurred.
In this regard, the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has written a letter to the French President Emanuel Macron.
In the letter, he demanded that France withdraw all refugees from Britain and allow British troops to patrol the coast of France to prevent the influx of refugees.
However, French government spokesman Gabriel Attell said the plans were unacceptable. The number of refugees seeking refuge in European countries from war and poverty stricken countries continues to rise from France to Britain in search of greater opportunities.
In order to do so they have to make a dangerous journey in substandard boats. Gangs that smuggle refugees are helping them.
So far this year alone, 25,700 have made such a dangerous journey. This is 3 times more than last year. Overcrowding in small boats, such as women and children, in areas with frequent changing weather, extreme cold, and maritime traffic congestion
