(AP-ANSA) - BERLIN - Prime Minister Andrej Babis says the Czech Republic is unwilling to take any of the 450 asylum-seekers who were rescued from a fishing boat in the Mediterranean Sea and are awaiting clearance to land in Europe. Italy has refused to let two military ships that picked up the migrants dock until other European Union nations agree to share the burden of caring for people who are rescued while trying to cross the Mediterranean. Babis said Sunday that accepting some of the rescued passengers would be "a road to hell" and only motivate human smugglers to try to bring more people on the perilous sea journey. The Czech prime minister tweeted: "Our country won't take any migrants." Babis says ships carrying migrants should be denied entry. He said: "We have to help the migrants in their own countries, outside the European Union. (AP-ANSA).
