This week on Dialogos Radio, producer-host Dr. Michael Nevradakis, along with author and ex-university lecturer Evans Agelissopoulos, continue to discuss the ongoing and ever-changing developments concerning the unfolding migrant crisis in Greece, Turkey’s (now realized) threat to release massive numbers of migrants into Europe through Greece, major protests by Greek island residents against migrant inflows and against riot police sent to protect the construction of “closed” migrant camps, and how the issue of migration is connected to concerns over the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid-19).

Can Greece bear to take in more migrants than the many thousands it already is hosting? Is there any precedent for the massive protests against further migrant inflows and the citizen attacks against members of the riot police? What do Erdogan’s threats mean for Greece and for the sustainability of the current government, which was elected in part on a platform to place the issue of migration in check? And while public events, including Patra’s “carnaval,” have been canceled due to fears of contagion from the Coronavirus, why are such health concerns not expressed in connection with the issue of “open borders”?
