Some 400 people are estimated to have perished while attempting to get in.<br \/>\n\u201cThe EU is demonstrating that united, we can establish this needed reform,\u201d said the head of the liberal faction, Val\u00e9rie Hayer.<br \/>\n\u201cNow, it is all about the implementation,\u201d she said, adding that was the responsibility of the member states and that <strong>human rights violations must be punished.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe vote was briefly interrupted by protesters in public galleries calling on the lawmakers to \u201cVote no!\u201d, while rights groups expressed criticism of the new system.<br \/>\nCaritas said it was \u201cconcerned about its potential negative impact on thousands of people\u2019s lives, as the new rules clearly limit access to protection for those in need\u201d.<br \/>\nActivists say the changes allowed for<strong> large-scale internment, including of children,<\/strong> and give member states the option to buy themselves out of hosting new arrivals. They criticise the EU for asking foreign states to handle migrants without what they say would be sufficient rights safeguards.<br \/>\nPoland\u00a0said after the vote that it would not accept an EU immigrant relocation scheme but, alone, it cannot stop the revamp when the majority of member states are expected to rubber-stamped it later this month.<br \/>\nEU states would then have two years to implement it, though analysts warn not to expect major changes on the ground overnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fact: European lawmakers approved a revamped migration
