  • Plevris: Greece Pushes EU Emergency Migration Plan – Return Hubs in Africa Targeted for 2027

    Plevris: Greece Pushes EU Emergency Migration Plan – Return Hubs in Africa Targeted for 2027

    Greece is pushing for a new European emergency mechanism that would apply when migration is weaponized or arrivals reach exceptional levels, Migration and Asylum Minister Thanos Plevris said. Athens is also working with Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands and Austria on the first return hubs outside the EU, with an agreement with a third country expected around the end of 2026 or early 2027 and a pilot project planned for 2027. Plevris says Greece’s main migration pressure now comes from Libya, while arrivals across the Aegean remain sharply lower.

    Erdoğan Draws a “Red Line” on GSI: “No Cable Without Our Consent” – Turkey Deploys Oruç Reis

    A double signal from Ankara in the Eastern Mediterranean: Turkey’s Defence Ministry says it will not allow “unauthorised” activities in areas it considers part of its continental shelf, while Oruç Reis begins a NAVTEX-covered mission between Turkey and northern Cyprus until October 25. In the wider geopolitical picture: the Great Sea Interconnector, Cyprus, Turkish-Libyan maritime claims and the Athens–Paris push to restart seabed surveys.

    Greece and Bulgaria Close a 109-Year-Old Chapter: 48 Religious Treasures Return Home

    Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Rumen Radev are set to seal an agreement in Thessaloniki carrying significant political and symbolic weight: Bulgaria is returning 48 ecclesiastical treasures taken to Sofia in 1917, while Greece is handing over to the Bulgarian side the remains of Tsar Samuel. The artifacts will first be displayed at the Museum of Byzantine Culture before returning to the monasteries and ecclesiastical authorities from which they originated.

    Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced four new interventions at the Cabinet meeting, targeting household debt, loan servicers and fuel costs.

    EU Puts the Brakes on Fiscal Exemptions: Greece’s Fuel Tax Push Faces a Higher Hurdle

    The European Fiscal Board warns against turning the energy crisis into a back door for further fiscal easing. Greece has already secured a positive Commission recommendation for energy-security investments, but cutting excise duties at the pump is a different matter — and would either have to be financed nationally or covered by a new European decision.

    Greece Becomes Europe’s “Southern Energy Gateway”: US LNG, the Vertical Corridor and a New Geopolitical Map

    Athens and Washington are building a strategic relationship increasingly shaped by pipelines, LNG infrastructure and hydrocarbon exploration. Government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis described Greece–US ties as “closer and more stable than ever,” as Europe’s move away from Russian gas increases the strategic value of Greece’s northbound energy routes.

    DBRS: Greece Widens Growth Gap With Europe’s Core — Economy Seen Expanding 1.8% as Unemployment Heads Toward 7.8%

    While France, Germany and Italy struggle with growth around or below 1%, Morningstar DBRS expects Greece to expand by 1.8% in both 2026 and 2027. The labor market is set to improve further, but the new Greek growth story faces a major external threat: oil, the Strait of Hormuz and an energy shock capable of rewriting Europe’s economic outlook.

    Greece is preparing for its first offshore exploration well since 1986, with drilling targeted for early 2027. ExxonMobil, Energean and HELLENiQ ENERGY are moving from seismic surveys to the decisive “Asopos-1” test in Block 2, where the prospective target has been estimated at around 270 billion cubic metres of gas — although no commercial discovery has yet been confirmed.

    Netanyahu at the UN: Delegates Walk Out as He Fights Back — The Next Battle Is at the Ballot Box

    Dozens of delegates walked out as Benjamin Netanyahu took the UN podium. The Israeli prime minister responded by calling them “moral cowards,” defended Israel’s conduct in Gaza and opened new fronts with Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Qatar and New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani. But his speech had another audience far beyond the General Assembly hall: Israeli voters, just weeks before the October 27 election.

    Speaking on Action 24, Adonis Georgiadis connected three fronts: Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ message to Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the UN, Greece’s deepening strategic relationship with Israel, and the striking reversal in Europe, where Greece’s reform experience is now being discussed in Germany. His warning on the economy was equally clear: geopolitical disorder is once again feeding directly into oil, energy and the cost of living.
