Greece Pushes EU to Allow Asylum Suspension During Migration Surges
Athens is urging the European Union to adopt mechanisms allowing member states to suspend asylum processing during large-scale migration emergencies, amid criticism that the bloc's migration pact lacks adequate tools.

Greece is pressing the European Union to allow member states to suspend asylum processing during periods of mass migration surges, according to a report by Al Jazeera.
The push comes amid broader criticism that the EU's migration pact does not provide sufficient tools for member states to manage large-scale migration emergencies when they occur.
Greece, which sits on one of the EU's key external borders, has repeatedly faced spikes in arrivals by sea and land and has previously sought greater flexibility in handling asylum claims during such surges.
The report did not specify the precise legal mechanism Greece is proposing or how other EU member states and institutions have responded to the request. Further details on the timeline for any changes to the bloc's migration pact were not included in the available reporting.
