In an article in Austrian newspaper ‘Kurier’ on the refugee crisis and its impact on the EU, European Commissioner for Migration, Home Affairs and Citizenship Dimitris Avramopoulos expressed fear that a humanitarian crisis would break out in Greece. Avramopoulos underlined that the EU should abandon Greece to on her own to bear the whole burden of the migrant influx, as it was a matter that concerned the whole of the EU and not one country. He revealed that an emergency plan to stem the flow of refugees and provide humanitarian aid within the EU borders was in the works. The European official stated that people entering the EU with no asylum status should be swiftly reprocessed into Turkey, while adding that greater determination was needed to combat networks of human smuggling in the Aegean Sea. He stressed that the EU Summit on the refugee crisis would be crucial to determine whether a solution would be reached.
