Since many Greek islands are close to the Turkish mainland, it is relativly easy to reache them by small boats. To stop the "flood of refugees", the EU considers to work together with the Turkish governement. Therefore the EU would like to move its obstacles for refugees to the south. In the worst-case scenario more people will take the dangerous route over Libya and Italy again. read more

Weiterhin erreichen täglich tausende Flüchtlinge die griechischen Inseln. Die humanitäre Lage vor Ort ist katastrophal, die Verzweiflung der festsitzenden Flüchtlinge groß. Anstatt die Aufnahmestrukturen im krisengeschüttelten Griechenland zu unterstützen, fließen europäische Gelder größtenteils in Abwehrmaßnahmen. Inzwischen steigt die Todesrate in der Ägäis dramatisch. read more

A dangerous trail through the West Balkans is currently the main entry route into Europe for migrants fleeing war and upheaval. But parts of the route have been blocked in recent months with razor-wire fences and other border controls, forcing migrants to take paths that are more dangerous. read more

Das Chaos in Kroatien hält eine bittere Lehre bereit: Je weiter die reichen Ländern in Mittel- und Westeuropa das Flüchtlingsproblem von sich wegschieben, desto schwerer wird es lösbar. Das Flüchtlingsproblem wächst mit dem Quadrat der Entfernung vom Zielland. Vollends abenteuerlich sind Ideen, "Schutzzonen" in Syrien oder große Flüchtlingslager in Afrika einzurichten. Eine Schutzzone in Syrien könnte und wollte niemand verteidigen, und wer ernsthaft in Libyen oder auch in Jordanien riesige Lager errichten will, schafft ein neues Palästinenserproblem – Zentren der Ausweglosigkeit und ideale Rekrutierungsfelder für allerlei extremistische Milizen. read more

Since 5 days in Edirne, Turkey, around 3000 thousands migrants (mostly syrians but also aghanis, irakis and others) gathered, following a call started on a Facebook page (“Crossing no more”), to ask for the turkish-greek border to be opened for them. They refuse to risk their lives in Aegean sea anymore to reach a european country where they’ll finally be safe, get basic human rights and have a chance to make a life for themselves. read more

Several hundred migrants who were blocked by police in northwest Turkey from crossing a land border to Greece this week drew a few kilometres closer to their destination Friday after the authorities briefly opened the route. Situated around 10 kilometres (six miles) from the Greek border and 20 kilometres (12 miles) from the Bulgarian frontier, Edirne has become a new rallying point for migrants trying to reach Europe. read more
Two new reception centers are being prepared – one for Attica and one near Thessaloniki. The aim is for both facilities to be operational in less than three weeks. The plan is for the migrants and refugees to stay there for two or three days until their registration is complete. Authorities are concerned that thousands of refugees and migrants could end up trapped in Greece as a number of European countries have essentially closed their borders to keep a flood of desperate people at bay. read more
