瑞典可能会使用监狱作为难民住处

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Sweden could use empty prisons and army barracks as emergency shelter for record numbers of refugees arriving in the Nordic country, the government said on Friday.

Sweden is coping and can house the 7,000 asylum seekers a week who are arriving at the country's ports and stations, but the situation is becoming "strained", Migration Minister Morgan Johansson told reporters.

"We are now experiencing the biggest flow of refugees since World War Two," Johansson said. "If this continues week after week after week, then we will need more housing."

Sweden's generous asylum policies mean it is one of the top destinations for people fleeing war and violence in the Middle East and Africa. Syrians, for example, have an automatic right to permanent residency.

The Migration Agency forecast in July that Sweden would receive 74,000 asylum applications this year, but the intensifying crisis means this number will likely be raised significantly.

To meet the challenge, the government plans to draw up an inventory of properties owned by the state and state companies that could be used to house refugees. The list includes army barracks as well as empty prisons.

"We don't have a full load (in Swedish prisons)," Johansson said, adding the government would also speed up planned legislation to spread the burden of housing refugees more evenly across Sweden's regions.

Currently, local authorities can block permanent refugee placements by saying they simply have no room.

"We have seen a dramatic increase in the number of refugees seeking asylum. That's why I have told Migration Minister Morgan Johansson to urgently review what steps need to be taken," Prime Minister Stefan Loefven told the TT newswire earlier on Friday ahead of a parliament debate on the escalating refugee crisis.

"People need to get roofs over their heads and the children have to start school," said Loefven, who heads Sweden's Social Democrat-Green coalition government.

The Nordic nation has a global reputation for helping refugees, but it has faced some criticism within Sweden following complaints from asylum seekers about long waiting times and access to housing.

Migration Minister Morgan Johansson told a press conference on Friday that the government was looking at a range of options to house refugees, including using empty jails. Sweden has closed down several prisons in the past few years because of falling crime rates.

"We're looking at properties owned by the Prison and Probation Service and the Armed Forces," said Johansson.

Other actions that could be taken are increased coordination with the Swedish Migration Agency, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency, and municipalities across the country to make sure that the new arrivals find somewhere to live.

The government also wants to fast-track proposed legislation to force local authorities to accept refugees.


Sweden is expected to receive at least 74,000 asylum applications by the end of 2015 and last year took in more refugees per capita than any other EU nation.

Its two neighbours, Norway and Finland, have both announced increased border controls as a result of the increased migration to their respective countries. But similar measures are not on the immediate agenda for Sweden, said Loefven earlier in the day.

"It's up to the police and the security police. We have so far not received any information from them indicating this," he told TT.

The Swedish Prime Minister spoke to reporters from New York where he is attending a United Nations summit on sustainable development. But with leaders such as Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel and Syrian envoy Staffan de Mistura also present, the ongoing refugee crisis is likely to be high on the agenda.

"I am also going to meet Iraq's prime minister and Iran's President Rouhani, they are important players," said Loefven, who faces a busy couple of days in New York.

On Saturday he is set to speak at the anti-poverty New York Global Citizen Festival, where he will mingle with icons including Beyonce and Salma Hayek. The Swedish prime minister was personally invited by Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin to the event, his press secretary revealed to The Local last week.

He confirmed that the Swedish leader would focus on gender inequality, poverty and improving access to clean water and sanitation facilities in the developing world in his address at the festival.

"The Prime Minister is proud to represent Sweden, a small country that is yet so well known for its unwavering commitment to fighting inequality," he added.
