Greece suspends asylum for Syrians

But still registers applications

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, DEC 10 - Manos Logothetis, the Greek government's Secretary General for Migration Policies, clarified in an interview with public broadcaster ERT that Greece has decided to temporarily freeze decisions on Syrian asylum requests while continuing to accept and register their applications. "Everyone has the right to come and submit an asylum request," he explained, but Greece has decided to temporarily halt the process because, in a few days, "all the facts we knew about Syria have been overturned."
