Press Release of PAME

           Last week, the ND government submitted to the parliament committees the new reactionary bill on asylum. This bill not only makes it more difficult for asylum seekers to apply, but also puts a tombstone for the approval. It turns the victims of war and imperialist interventions through earth from refugees to “financial migrants”, to send them back to their countries ignoring the conditions that forced them to uproot. It opens the door for their general detention in closed centers and their deportation to the country from which they came.

The current government continues the previous anti-migration policy, as all laws and conditions that entrap refugees and migrants in our country, remain in force. The policy followed over time from all governments is harmonized with that of the EU, NATO. Imperialist contradictions are also expressed in our region. The eastern Mediterranean is a seething cauldron. Peoples are at any given time at the vortex of the competitions of the big capital, that will not hesitate to bloodshed innocents to defend its interests.

 We demand:

  • Do not adopt the reactionary bill on asylum
  • Full respect for the Geneva Convention and international refugee law.
  • Abolition of the Dublin regulations, Schengen, Frontex and of all EU repressive mechanisms
  • Direct, safe transport of refugees- migrants from their host countries to their countries of final destination, with UN and EU responsibility and with full respect for the rights deriving from their refugee status. Immediately resolve the issue of family reunification.
  • Ensure human living conditions for refugees. Provide special care and care for unaccompanied children. Ensureaccesstohealthcareforall
  • No participation or involvement of Greece in the imperialist wars and interventions. Shut down all US NATO bases now.
