German papers are refererencing the active intervention team of FRONTEX at the Greek boarders.
German press published some days ago the news that the Commission answered positively to the Greek request for the protection of the boarders from the illegal immigrants by the forces of FRONTEX team.
“Greece asks for help to protect the boarders from the illegal immigrants “ is written at the web page of the German paper Die Zelt. It underlines that: “The Commission speaks for a dramatic change due to the fact that the illegal immigrants coming to Greece rises and is possible to create a humanitarian crisis at the Greek Turkish boarders for where 90% of illegal immigrants find their way to Europe.”
Greece estimates that the country can’t afford dealing with the illegal immigrants and therefore asked for the FRONTEX force to intervene.
It is the first time in history that Greece as a member of EU, asks for the help of the FRONTEX force since its creation in 2007.
The newspaper refers to older investigations and complaints of the human rights protection organization PRO ASYL concerning the living conditions of the refuges in Greece and for the systematic return to Turkey.
