Greece Declares Migrant Crisis an ‘Invasion’ — Suspends Asylum Claims and Detains All New Arrivals

Some parts of Europe are finally waking up to the migrant invasion of their countries.

According to the BBC, Greece has begun detaining male migrants arriving from Libya and is no longer processing their asylum claims.

Meanwhile, the government has declared a state of emergency and announced new measures to stop what describes an “invasion” of their southern border.

The Greek island of Crete has become a key entry point to Europe after a 2023 Italy–Libya returns deal redirected trafficking routes away from southern Italy.

Roughly 10,000 migrants arrived on Crete earlier this week, most of them men from North Africa, overwhelming local services and costing taxpayers huge sums of money.

The BBC report provides more details:

In the centre of a sweltering, cavernous hall, rows of men sit in silence with nothing to occupy them but the wait. Signs from an old tourist fair propped up behind them urge visitors to “Explore the Beauty of Nature” with illustrations of coves and beaches in Crete.

But those held in the former Ayia exhibition centre did not come to the Greek island as holidaymakers. They are migrants who risked a journey across the sea from Libya to Europe’s southern tip and were then detained and denied the right to apply for asylum.

From Crete, they are now being moved to closed facilities on the mainland. The right for anyone to request protection, or asylum, is inscribed in EU and international law and in the constitution of Greece itself.

But in a move implemented in haste earlier this month and criticised by human rights lawyers, the government has over-ridden that principle for the next three months at least.

Migration Minister Thanos Plevris has confirmed that all new arrivals will be detained and deported..

“Anyone entering Greek territory over the next three months does so illegally and will be returned,” he said.

“It’s clear a country cannot accept such pressure from migration and not react,” he continued.

“Anyone who comes will be detained and returned.”

Greece just slammed the door shut on illegal migration.

New laws mean NO asylum loopholes. NO more abuse of the system. NO open borders.

The new rules block migrants from moving inland. Previously, many entered through beaches and continued into the Schengen zone.

Germany recently imposed a similar immigration crackdown by ordering immediate pushbacks of all illegal migrants at its national borders, ending nearly a decade of a de facto open border policy.
