I am aware that Mediterranean countries have a huge influx from Africa. We understand that. As part of the European Union, I am trying to get a sense of what is happening. I am trying to get the picture. It is the first time I heard those figures. There are figures bandied about. In terms of what we are doing, as compared to the west or the 15 European countries before the last big expansion, we are top of the league in terms of how many we are taking.
For 2023, have we any figures for the potential number that we may have in terms of the Ukrainian situation? It appears to have slowed down. Would that be correct?
