epa04921469 Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker (C) delivers his first State of the Union address to the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, 09 September 2015. The European Union was set 09 September to launch a fresh effort to tackle its migration crisis, including a controversial scheme to redistribute refugees among member states. The 28-country bloc has been struggling with its biggest influx of migrants and asylum seekers since World War II, which has stretched resources and sparked tensions between EU countries.
