The European Commission's attempt to launch a comprehensive strategy to tackle the ongoing migrant crisis in the Mediterranean has apparently failed, as major member states such as France and Spain withdrew their support for the controversial quota system at its heart.
The strategy package included proposals to allow European Union (EU) member states to deploy military force against human traffickers, seizing boats in countries such as Libya and even sending in ground troops.
But the divisive quota proposal, which would "share the burden" of migrants between member states by divvying them out, could prove the sticking point that sinks the whole raft of policies.
