This emergency requires extraordinary treatment measures. The Greek government made the decision to suspend asylum seeking for three months for those arriving in Greece from Africa by floating means. Those immigrants who enter the country illegally will be arrested and held.

Our second decision is to create one, first, and possibly a second permanent closed structure in Crete.

Thirdly, our discussions with Libya continue, but I want to be clear: the Greek Armed Forces are willing to work together to prevent boats from leaving Libya or even when these boats are back from where they started. Let us all be clear the government sends a message of determination: the passage in Greece is closing and this is a message to both their traffickers and potential customers. Our reaction and attitude will be legal and very strict. We will inform the National Delegation about this. “
