Brussels recommends sending asylum-seekers back to Greece as of March

The European Commission said on Thursday that member states should be allowed to send some asylum-seekers back to Greece as of March 15.

The European Commission said that Greece has improved in hosting and registering arriving asylum-seekers.
It recommended that EU states be allowed to send back to Greece asylum-seekers who enter the bloc that way and make it deeper into Europe from mid-March onwards. The recommendation does not apply to those who have already made that journey.
