 Who is blamed for the toddler's death?

The fresh call for EU countries to share the burden of asylum seekers came after a photograph of a three-year-old, who was found drowned on a beach in Turkey, led to an international outcry.
The Turkish police find the dead body a three-year-old refugee from Syria over a beach in Turky on September 2, 2015. The boy was among five children who drowned in Turkish waters while trying to reach Greece on Wednesday.
Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny says European leaders need to act immediately to minimize the human cost of the crisis. "Is there anybody on the planet who could not be moved by what they saw in the papers today? “Anybody with a sense of humanity to see the body of a young boy washed up on a beach like driftwood. And while we all have our problems and we can talk the politics of any individual country, this is a human catastrophe and this particular picture may after so many deaths shock people into a sense of who we are and what we should be."
