The Greek Authorities Abandon Asylum Seekers at Sea
Matina Stevis-Gridnaff: Greece is a key entryway for migrants and refugees seeking a better life in Europe. She says evidence has been hard to come by until last month when she received an email from someone who said he had hours of footage showing the Greek authorities doing just that on April 11th. Mattina asked Greek authorities to meet and discuss the video, but they declined. The 12 people were adrift in the Aegean Sea for at least an hour until two Turkish Coast Guard vessels approached them and rescued them.
