Obama referred to the situation as “unsustainable” and “unacceptable”. He has been vocal about the refugee crisis in the past, and has tried to put a human face on the issue by meeting with refugees and emphasizing their shared humanity with people in the US. While some have criticized Obama for politicizing the Titanic tragedy with his comments on the Greece shipwreck, others have praised him for bringing attention to the plight of refugees.
