Greece is making efforts to meet its responsibilities toward refugees but now it is high time for Europe to show its solidarity, Greece’s caretaker Alternate Minister for Migration Policy Ioannis Mouzalas said here on Monday, in a doorstep statement as he arrived for the EU Justice and Home Affairs Council on the refugee crisis.
“We welcome the proposals of the Commission, the measures that recognize the European dimension of the problem, we welcome Juncker’s proposals that show the Europe of enlightenment, of human rights. We will work hard with Europe to resolve the problem, taking a distance from racism and xenophobic ideas,” he said.
