European Union member states play a major role in the disgusting abuse of migrants at the Greek/Turkish border. The closing of EU borders and the EU/Turkey deal lead to the current situation in no man’s land between the Turkish/Greek border. The Erdogan regime send people to the border, dont let them return to Turkey, and Greek cops are teargassing migrants to “defend” this EU border. Its no surprise that Erdogan is abusing the situation of migrants to put pressure on NATO “allies”. Merkel, one of the architects of the inhuman EU/Turkey deal was warned more than once about the consequences of this deal. We want to stress that its the xenophobic and racist policies of EU member states that makes it possible for Erdogan to blackmail the EU. There is a lot more to say about these policies and we surely will publish an article about that in the coming days. For now we decided to re-publish a short overview about the current developments. What follows is an article by Are you Syrious about the situation at the border. We don’t share all views in the article, as we think the responsibillity of EU member states is not made clear enough. On the other hand we are aware that Are You Syrious published a lot of other articles about the EU Turkey deal and the key role the EU is playing in this disgusting power game. For us, the question is: how long are we going to tolerate this situation and what are we going to do about it?
