BRUSSELS: The European Union (EU) expects to relocate 30,000 refugees in Greece to other countries by the end of next year, the European Commission said on Wednesday.
“With the increased capacity of the Greek Asylum Service and if member states step up their efforts, it should be possible to relocate the remaining relocation candidates present in Greece (around 30,000) within the next year,” it said in a report.
The commission maintained that important progress had been made despite the fact that only 5,651 refugees having been moved from Greece and Italy so far – under the scheme adopted in September 2015 to relocate a total of 160,000 people over two years.
