The inhuman practices used by Turkey against immigrants are confirmed in the most shocking way by a photo from Evros about the inhuman instrumentalization of human misery.

In the photo naked migrants can be seen after they were rescued on Friday by police officers of the Border Guard Department in Evros, Greece in cooperation with Frontex.

In total, the Greek authorities rescued 92 illegal immigrants from the banks of the river Evros, who had been abandoned at the scene completely naked and without the slightest equipment.

As the Ministry of Citizen Protection typically states, “Turkey continues to openly use immigrants as a tool, to violate human rights, to violate International Law”.

The specific people, as they themselves stated to the Greek Police, had been transported to Evros in three vehicles of the Turkish Authorities, while they then boarded plastic boats to cross over to the Greek side.

It is recalled that the Minister of Citizen Protection, Takis Theodorikakos, denounced Turkey’s behavior at the Council of Ministers of the Interior and Public Order in Luxembourg on Friday, while also informed the competent European Commissioner about the daily provocations, presenting audio-visual material.

“At a time when Greece is effectively protecting its borders, showing respect for human life, Turkey continues to ignore not only International Law, but also basic human behavior”, concludes the announcement of the Ministry of Citizen Protection.
