  • [01] President Pavlopoulos asks for EU Summit on refugees and migration

    ANA/MPA---President of Republic Prokopis Pavlopoulos on Wednesday pointed the need for an EU Summit for the migration issue immediately during his meeting with Potami leader Stavros Theodorakis at the Maximos mansion.

    "It is weird that Europe and the UN have not yet taken decisions on the condition in the Middle East and particularly in Syria" said Pavlopoulos noting that as long as the war continues the phenomenon will multiply "Foreign policy from Europe and from the international community and particularly from the UN is needed" he said.

    According to Pavlopoulos there must be an EU Summit that will decide which Europe's obligations are adding that Greece can't handle the issue alone "It is a European and international issue".

    On his part, Theodorakis called the migration a major national issue noting "even if we did everything right we would not be able to face this huge migration and refugee flows".

    He also said that Europe must find solutions for the refugees and other solution for the migration flow. "If we do not cooperate with their countries of origin and with Turkey that is the last stop before they get into the boats, I think things will become very difficult. A national policy, fortunately or unfortunately, is needed and for this issue" said Potami leader
