Greece has become Europe’s frontline in the battle against illegal immigration. In mid-2025, Athens launched some of the toughest measures in its modern history—suspending asylum claims for boat arrivals from North Africa, expanding the Evros border fence, deploying navy frigates off Libya, and introducing ankle monitors and prison terms for rejected asylum seekers. This video breaks down what happened in Crete and Gavdos, why these policies were passed, how they affected migrant flows, and why international organizations and courts are pushing back. With arrivals dropping sharply after the July freeze, Greece’s crackdown has ignited debate across Europe: is this decisive border protection, or a challenge to EU law? Join us as we examine the measures, the numbers, and the future of Europe’s migration fight.
