<p><strong>ANOTHER OVERLOOKED CASUALTY OF EXTERNALISING ASYLUM AT ANY COST</strong></p>

<p>Despite the ongoing suspension of readmissions to Turkey, the Greek Ministry for Migration and Asylum and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs published Joint Ministerial Decision&nbsp;Νο. 42799 on 7 June, which “designates”&nbsp;Turkey as a safe third country not only for Syrians, but also for Afghanis, Somalis, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis.6&nbsp;Aside from serious concerns regarding the legality of the designation of Turkey as a safe third country, the decision means that the fate of the Syrians refugees described above is now expected to affect approximately 70% of all asylum seekers in Greece.</p>
