The Council of Majorca has announced that it will be launching a co-operation project with the Majorca Solidarity Fund for the Greek island of Chios, which has been swamped by refugees: 17,000 have arrived so far this year. Jesus Jurado, the second vice-president, says that the best way of providing support to refugees arriving via Turkey is through the solidarity fund, of which the Council has been a member since 1993 and through which the budget for international aid is managed.
