Earlier on Saturday, President Francois Hollande asked Britain to accept more of 1,500 child refugee camp Calais as France is going to dismantle it. Those who have no relatives will be sent partly to Britain and other areas in France. The spokesperson for British Prime Minister’s Office said Britain has fulfilled its commitment to France in receiving child refugees in line with Dublin agreement.
