Greek PM Demands EU Improve Response on Migration into Europe

Migration Minister Notis Mitarakis said an estimated 1,000 Moria residents would be relocated to the army-built tent city late Sunday and that getting everyone housed at the new site would take several days.

"At the moment, it’s happening on a voluntary basis,” Mitarakis told Greek TV station Open TV.

Mitarakis said those entering the new camp would undergo rapid testing for coronavirus and that five new cases have been found so far.

At the Vatican, Pope Francis expressed solidarity Sunday with the migrants on Lesbos and called for a “dignified” welcome for them.

Pope Francis had visited the Moria camp in 2016, bringing back to Rome with him 12 Syrian refugees.
