I think claiming that it is not different is disingenuous.

Europe is still grappling with the large wave of non-European immigration from the second half of the 20th century up to now, which has been and is still causing a lot of social and cultural problems.

The last thing Europe needs is to add more fuel to the fire, especially that, again, immigration is not a solution and is not needed.

I still stand by my statement.

IN ESSENCE, absorbing migrants is not an easy task, and this applies to ALL migrants, no exceptions made. IN PARTICULAR, some migrants might pose additional challenges to integrate but they are not necessarily to blame fully for this, sometimes the host population are biased against them making the process more arduous for them, while giving at the same time a preferential treatment to other migrant populations.

Yes, some migrants are more 'challenging' to integrate, especially to assimilate partly because some cultural differences mean that they do not want to assimilate and will not assimilate. This is key to what Europe has been experiencing.

Of course, for instance when Italians migrated to France that did create some tensions at the time but a generation later there was no difference apart from the Italian family names, because French and Italian cultures are very similar and, yes let's be honest, they both look pretty much the same.

Europe can and should pick and choose who to let in. As things stand there is no benefit for Europe in mass immigration from outside of Europe.
