April 2 (UPI) -- The European Union's Court of Justice ruled Thursday that the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland violated rules by not accepting a refugee quota set in 2015 for those fleeing violence in Syria and Iraq.
All three nations had voted against helping Italy and Greece relocate the refugees, which was approved by more than two-thirds of EU members. The court said the three governments failed to take on their share of the 120,000 refugees in the program.
