Write an e-mail to your friend (100-150 words). Ap. 100
immigrants have recently come to your town. Tell your friends
how the local life changed. Tell him that you engaged in local
charity organization helping them. Ask him for any possible
contribution on his part. Propose any possible actions.
You are a director of FRONTEX. Write a memo to the Chairman
of the European Counsil to call an emergency meeting on
Ministry of Interior level to deal with increased tension on
borders. The humanitarian help which is frequently intercepted
by local gangs is the primary issue. The epidemy threat in
regugee camps increased too. Ask for any possible help that EU
