UNITED NATIONS: U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Wednesday expressed shock and alarm at the treatment of refugees and migrants on the border of Hungary and Serbia, adding that they should be treated with dignity and their human rights respected.
"I was shocked to see how these refugees and migrants were treated, it's not acceptable," Ban told a news conference. "All the countries have their domestic problems, but since they are the people fleeing the wars and persecutions, then we must show our compassionate leadership."
"They must be treated with human dignity and human rights," he added. "That's my consistent message to European and Asian leaders, wherever this migration and refugees are coming."
