Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis calls for EU member states to have the ability to suspend asylum claims in exceptional circumstances. The proposal is presented as a response to pressures connected with irregular migration into the EU and comes ahead of an emergency EU summit. The summit is set to discuss last week’s incident in Ceuta, where migrants stormed into the Spanish enclave. According to the reporting, Mitsotakis argues that emergency measures could be used by EU capitals to manage surges and operational challenges tied to migration flows. The move also faces scrutiny, with coverage noting that it could deepen divisions within the EU over immigration policy, particularly around the balance between border management measures and asylum rights. No detailed mechanism or specific legal basis for the proposed suspension is described in the available text. Overall, the proposal is framed as part of a broader push for more flexibility in responding to crisis situations, while raising concerns among opponents that asylum protections could be restricted during periods of heightened migrant arrivals.
