EU-ROMA: Roma expulsions are sign of 'dangerous times' in Europe, human rights chief says (euobserver, link): "The French Roma crisis is a sign of a "dangerous" drift to the right in European politics but also an opportunity to do "something real" for the minority, the secretary general of the Council of Europe has said in an interview with EUobserver." See also: EU warns France of action over Roma (BBC News, link): "The European Commission has told France that it faces action over its expulsion of Roma (gypsy) migrants if it fails to adopt EU rules on freedom of movement by 15 October."
