Translator's version
La crisi dei migranti è un problema anche dell’America
My Re-translation:
(Migrant crisis is America's problem, too)
paesi europei perché non stanno facendo abbastanza per aiutare chi
affronta quei pericolosi viaggi nella speranza di trovare una vita migliore nel
vecchio continente.
My Re-translation
(European nations aren't doing more to help those making perilous journeys
in the hope of a better life in the continent)

Should Translation be visible in
