President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen,  express: "I thank Greece is the shield of Europe" . The anti-immigrant EU policy has been expressed in the punishment NGOs lifesaving in the Mediterranean Sea, the abandonment of people fleeing the horror in makeshift boats, the favorable decision deportations hot taken by European Court of Human Rights.
