'Second Calais' grows as Macron vows to lower migrant flow in France


French President Emmanuel Macron has vowed to clear migrants from the streets of France -- even as fears of a “second Calais” migrant camp have arisen among residents. Due to the living conditions and crime rates, the town of Metz has been dubbed the “second Calais” by several locals, Russia Today reported. The port of Calais, a refugee camp that housed nearly 7,000 refugees, was evacuated in October last year. It's becoming a second Calais," a concerned local woman told Russia Today's Charlotte Dubenskij. Earlier last week, Macron spoke of possibly vetting migrants in Libya -- but French officials then walked back that announcement.
