“McLaughlin Group” host John McLaughlin slammed the “mischaracterization” of Europe’s immigrant influx as Syrian refugees on Friday.

“The most over-reported story of 2015: the mischaracterization of the influx of immigrants into Europe as, ‘Syrian refugees’. Many were from as far away as Afghanistan, and sub-Saharan Africa, and Ukraine. Asylum seekers included 34,000 Syrians and 53,000 Albanians and Kosovars.”
