Greece’s Mitsotakis: EU needs new tools to fight back against weaponized migration
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis argues that the EU needs new tools to address weaponized migration, citing events in Ceuta and past incidents in Greece, Lithuania, Poland, and Latvia as examples of migration being used as a geopolitical tool. He emphasizes the inadequacy of the current Migration and Asylum Pact in handling scenarios where migration is deliberately amplified to test European resilience.
