To be fair, Greece doesn’t have to let these monkeys in anymore – the US is flying them to Mexico so they can cross into my country.
The number of migrants arriving in Greece has dropped significantly over the last two years, according to the country’s migration minister.
Speaking at an event celebrating the launch of his ministry on Tuesday, Notis Mitarachi said the migration policies of Greece’s right-wing government were behind the fall, including increased border security, faster asylum procedures and a tightening of migration laws.
Greece has been widely accused of expelling people as soon as they reach Greek soil, without allowing them to apply for asylum, in a practice known as pushbacks.

Pushbacks are illegal under international law, with many migrants and rights groups claiming they often involve high degrees of violence and force — something Greece denies.
The number of asylum-seekers living in the southern European country has also fallen, according to Mitarachi.
He said that Greece saw the lowest number of arrivals in a decade in 2021, putting the figure at under 9,000 people.
At the height of the Greek migration crisis, hundreds of thousands of people arrived on Greek islands or crossed the land border with Turkey, in what was the largest influx of refugees to Europe since World War Two.
The vast majority of these people wanted to head onward to wealthier European countries, such UK, France and Germany.
“After the explosion in the period 2015-2019, in 2021 we had the lowest flows of the decade, 8,745, and steadily low in 2022 too” Mitarachi said. “The result is that instead of 92,000 asylum seekers living in 121 facilities, we have today 14,000 in 33 facilities.”
…
In 2015, Mitarachi said, arrivals in Greece accounted for 75% of the total number of irregular arrivals in the European Union, while in 2022 that figure stood at just 5%.
It certainly shows that it’s possible.
We’ve not heard of any mass civilian deaths in the brutal Syrian civil war as a result of Greece cockblocking entry.
