The highest court of Greece will decide on the EU-Turkey Deal
Athens/Chios/Frankfurt: Today the highest Greek Court will hold a hearing to examine whether Turkey is a “safe first country of asylum”, as presumed by the EU-Turkey Deal. It will hear the case of two Syrians whose asylum applications had been deemed inadmissible on first and second instance examination and who therefore are at risk of being deported to Turkey. Their cases were never examined on the merits. This is the second hearing at the Council of State to be hold about this case. Previously the 4th Chamber of the Council of State decided after a public hearing on 29. November 2016 to refer the case to the plenary given the importance of the issues raised.
