As a contribution to the the extraordinary situation at the EU Greek external borders, the EU Commission presented an Action Plan of measures to support Greece. This follows the visit of President von der Leyen with Presidents Michel, Sassoli and Prime Minister Plenković at the Greek-Turkish and Bulgarian-Turkish borders alongside Prime Ministers Mitsotakis and Borissov.

In these extraordinary circumstances, the first priority is to ensure order at our external border.
Margaritis Schinas, Vice-President for Promoting our European Way of Life

Urgent action is needed to address the immediate challenges faced by Greece at both its land and sea borders with Turkey, and to monitor developments in Bulgaria and Cyprus. At the same time, structural and sustainable solutions are needed for the EU as a whole. To this end, the Commission intends to soon present proposals for a New Pact on Migration and Asylum.
