He underlined that German ministers are in direct contact wtih their Greek counterparts, in order to swiftly provide assistance in efforts for the relief of those affected.
Sakellaropoulou briefed the German president on the situation in Moria, noting that the pandemic makes things even worse.

She said that she has recently visited Lesvos and the Moria reception and identification centre and has a clear picture of the extremely difficult situation there. Sakellaropoulou said that she appreciates the German government's readiness to offer immediate support, as it is clear that the migration and refugee issue is not a Greek but a European problem.
