The 27 seem to care more about keeping refugees out of Europe than about preventing them from becoming refugees in the first place

Sharing the full story, not just the headlinesIt was while conducting a needs assessment by a small town of tents and tipis made from branches and bin liners that we were first teargassed by Greek border police. Little did we know this would soon become a regular occurrence.It was whilst distributing shoes to people whose footwear had fallen apart after hundreds of miles of walking that we met Abdullah.

For the past two years, Vanessa Beeley has been doing on-the-ground reporting in Syria ... Her work on the White Helmets in particular has drawn the ire of the warmongers and their media mouthpieces...

This is not about Greece or Turkey but systematic and deliberate targeting of civilians in Idlib

4%were Syrians, asshole.

A spectacularly naive, simplistic and in essence stupid storyline, designed to smear Greece as being exclusively guilty of a situation on Turkish soil, designed entirely by Erdogan to provoke confrontation with the EU and an armed conflict with Greece.

What a sneaky publishment is this? Syrians are only 4-5% if refugees Send a reporter to Greek borders to verify the real happenings and turkish propaganda Thank you anyway for support to the defenders of their own country and Europe Just don't accept to be payed in TK Liras!

There not our problem they are the Syrian We have enough issues fighting this virus

👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Why would the Greek border police take dirty cloths or what ever from illegal immigrants, the 🇬🇷police force is well paid and can afford what ever they need or want ... here your lies exposed 👇🏼👇🏼

LIARS!! not Syrian refugees.Afghans,Pakis, Moroccans,Algerians , hundreds of fanatic Islamists & extremists who threaten us, swear us in vulgar ways,throw stones & tear gas supplied by the Turkish army,screaming that they will burn the Greeks. FakeNews GreeceUnderAttack

Nice article by the employer of Syria Relief NGO...Takbirrrr!!

Curious who funds the NGO Syria Relief. Most of those at the border are not Syrian and of those that are and have come from Idlib, how many are alQaeda? Let the EU go to Turkey and process refugees there. This is what's happening at the Greek border....

If Mahmoud was Greek Cypriot he would be able to move freely within the EU with just his passport. And as a Greek Cypriot, none of us are named Mahmoud. If you can’t be bothered to come up with an INFORMED unbiased opinion, do us a favor and at least stop with the fake news

What about the Syrian government and its military?

You can't be a refugee if you paid people to get you where you are.

fact 1: most of them are not Syrians. fact 2: this is orchestrated by a paranoid dictator who uses desperate people as weapons. fact 3: this article is pure turkish propaganda. fact 4: you suck.

Greece is deep in the national debt slavery hole, a situation that is made worse by an unasked for increase in labour pushing average real wage even further under tax contribution level, speeding their slide into slavery with an even larger deficit. Poverty is making lives hell.

Political pawns. As if they haven't gone through enough already.

Refugees!!!! Yeah right and most of them are from Afghanistan and Iraq, if you are going to lie to your readers at least get the basic facts right before starting the lie. They have no right to demand anything and they are being used by Erdogan to extort money from the EU

You do realize this is shitty reporting? What the fuck does this mean? “Most Syrians we speak to want to go to Germany; many have family there from the last refugee crisis in 2015. Mahmoud was an exception. His family is Greek Cypriot, so he wants to visit relatives in Greece”

Nah we support Greece, Turkey have weaponised these migrants, and your writing propaganda for them. God bless Greece 🇬🇷

Why are the media protecting Erdogan's ethnic cleaning?
