Την Παρασκευή 4 Οκτωβρίου 2024 το Δικαστήριο της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης (ΔΕΕ), συντασσόμενο και με τη Γνώμη του Γενικού Εισαγγελέα, έκρινε ότι τα κράτη μέλη δεν μπορούν να εκδώσουν απόφαση που απορρίπτει αίτημα ασύλου ως απαράδεκτο, με βάση την έννοια της «ασφαλούς τρίτης χώρας», όταν έχουν διαπιστώσει ότι δεν θα επιτραπεί στον αιτούντα άσυλο να μεταβεί στο έδαφος χώρας που έχει χαρακτηρισθεί ως ασφαλής.
Asylum seekers in Greece have once again been denied their legal right to dignified living conditions after months of delay in payments of cash assistance, leaving people without an income and unable to meet their basic needs. Beneficiaries of the cash assistance program have been informed via text message that delays are occurring. However, there has been no public announcement from the Ministry of Migration and Asylum regarding the cause of the delays or how long they will last, leaving people in the dark about when to expect payments to resume.
This report draws on information inter alia provided by the Directorate of the Hellenic Police and the General Secretariat for Vulnerable Persons and Institutional Protection (GSVP) of the Ministry on Migration and Asylum, national and international jurisprudence, reports by international, European and national human rights bodies and institutions, international and non-governmental organisations, publicly available data, media information as well as GCR’s observations from practice and information provided by the GCR Legal and Social Unit.
