Greece once again extended its "border wall" with Turkey. What troubles have the refugee problem brought to the local area?

Greece will once again extend its border wall with Turkey to prevent refugees and illegal immigrants from entering Greece from Turkey. During a visit to Efros, a region bordering on Turkey in the northeast of Greece, Theodhori Kakos said that the government intends to extend the original 40km border wall by140km. The border wall composed of concrete and barbed wire was first built in 20 12, and the last expansion was in 202 1 year.

Greece is one of the main gateways for refugees and irregular immigrants from the Middle East and Africa to enter EU countries. From 2065438 to March 2006, Turkey reached an agreement with the European Union to control irregular immigrants, and the number of irregular immigrants smuggled into Europe through Turkey dropped sharply. However, the Greek authorities said that in recent months, they intercepted a large number of refugees and illegal immigrants. According to Greek police figures, in the first seven months of 2022, Greece arrested 7,484 refugees and illegal immigrants, of whom 3,554 were in Efros.

In 20 15, the EU named the military base on the mountain as the so-called "hot spot", where hundreds of thousands of immigrants arrived by boat were scanned, their fingerprints were collected and placed in various parts of the EU. Even before this terrible fire, the refugees in Moria refugee camp had already suffered from poor living conditions, conflicts with local residents and the arrival of new epidemics, all of which aggravated the despair and panic in the refugee camp. These are the chain reaction of Europe's fragmented treatment of refugees and the EU refugee treaty.

The resettlement of refugees has always been the center of the EU conflict. For Greece, Italy and other countries hosting refugees, they are eager for the support of other European countries to relieve their pressure, which has led to more antagonistic ethnic conflicts. A temporary emergency resettlement plan released in 20 15 aims to receive160,000 refugees from countries at the front of the war and allow member States to share these refugees. However, the plan started slowly, and less than a quarter of the refugees were resettled. Hard-line governments in Hungary and Poland also strongly oppose this policy because they don't want to accept any refugees.
