Mr Koornhof surmised that Europe was in a survival mood at present and therefore EU countries were looking after themselves, Germany, for instance, was funding a bailout, since it was in their interest to do so. He agreed that joblessness amongst the youth was a challenge and pointed out that a survey done amongst South African youth concluded that they would be starting their own enterprises. He was however keen to gain an understanding of what EU youth concerns were being raised. They agreed that it was a matter that had to be addressed and solutions sought before another incident of that nature happened. The members discussed the matter at length and agreed that it was a challenge that should be addressed through further debates within Parliaments and children being educated to be tolerant towards each other.
