Open the possibility of escalating measures to deal with migratory flows by the Libya To Crete “if there is a feasibility on the opposite side” the Minister of Immigration and Asylum left, Thanos Plevris,
“If it is a conventional phenomenon, it is something we manage, Crete will have been emptied by the end of the week. But if there are intentions and see the continuation of the phenomenon there will be escalation. We don’t have to say anything more we will see when the time comes, ”Mr Plevris said, speaking on Action24.
As he explained, “From 12 to 16 September we had 20 incidents with a total of 1,100 people. What we want to see if it is a conventional and can happen but because there were many days with good weather at this time but we had boats with 20-30 people, the 20 boats with hundreds of people worried about whether there was tolerance, if not urged, on the other hand. “
According to the Minister of Immigration and Asylum“We are currently we have the lowest flows in the eastern Aegean islands we are 50% down compared to last year” while in Crete “we had a 80% reduction from July 9th to September 12th with the decisions we made to suspend asylum”.
Mr. Plevris was finally asked about whether he will be observed the measure of suspension of asylum administration And he replied that “this will depend on the flow of flows and whether or not the phenomenon is a coin. The peculiarity that concerns us is that while in early summer 70% were from no refugee profiles, the latest flows show that these flows from Bangladesh, Pakistan, Egypt have zeroed and we have flows from Sudan and that concerns us. The decision will be made on the first week of October depending on flows »
