Being a guest in Sweden - open your heart and fill up your neighbours'

We hear nowdays that Sweden has allegedly filled up its tents and beds intended to 'all migrants' who were 'welcome to Sweden'. Today not all are welcome, if any.

With other words, the policy of 'open-your-heart' has not been a full success; one could also say that it has has failed. At least it did not work up to expectations with the smoothly running official policy olf the state. The Minister of Justice and the Party leader of Moderaterna has unisont declared that enough is enough; the land is full and cannot accept more 'refugees'. No roof over their heads, no beds under their tired bodies and no food for the hungry, is the message. Particularly not the kind of accommodation that migrants expect to find in a high-tec country with a strong social net (well-fare) that Sweden has managed to reach and mediate to the world.

Also the Prime Minister of Sweden has been cautiously uttered warnings towards migration; refugees are not really welcome any more. /This is a tricky subject6, because Sweden has stubbornly insisted calling the migrants refugees, and refugees are those, who cannot be refused, should they prove to be 'authentic' refugees... while migrants might be sorted out, refused and sent back to their home countries).

Should migrants still decide to come to Sweden despite the unwelcoming welcome, Sweden invented a new kind of hospitality policy. As refugees (and we take also other migrants) might still come to the country, and as in fact there are already a lot of them within the country, Sweden has requested other countries to 'take responsibility' and lift off the burdain from the shoulders of Sweden.

To interpret it as you intend to throw a party and tell everybody that they are welcome to the party. When the guests arrive, you get a shock because there are too many of them and you do not have the space and food for them. What to do? Well, you demand that your neighbors take 'responsibility' (for your invitation). and they should provide and cater for the gusts

Nice, Sweden!
