European Leaders Agree to Plan for Refugees 
--------------------------------------------


 
Leaders from the European Union and the Balkans have agreed to a plan to
address the wave of refugees attempting to reach Germany and other
European countries before winter. The plan ramps up efforts to register
the refugees and makes room for 100,000 people in reception centers in
Greece and other countries. Nearly 250,000 refugees, many fleeing
violence in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, have crossed through the
Balkans since mid-September.
