Places where the refugees might be placed have been burned down and this has caused insurance companies to refuse to insure them ( future residences for refugees). In turn, our national immigration agency has announced that they are now setting up cots in their offices as there is no place to put the refugees.
So my question is, are other countries increasing their intake of refugees? I realizability that Germany is also taking in a large amount but they are the only other country I have really heard about. Taking in an extra hundred or so just doesn't seem that much if you have thousands knocking at the door...

USA: No idea. This country is so big that if China invaded California, and the news decided not to report it, we on the East Coast wouldn't even know. So I couldn't tell you what our country as a whole is doing, but here in Virginia I haven't heard about any refugees.
