ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Authorities in financially troubled Greece on Monday detailed plans to build detention centers for 30,000 illegal immigrants by 2014, a project they claimed would help fight rampant inner-city crime, deter economic migrants and create thousands of local jobs.
Public Order Minister Michalis Chrysohoidis said 30 facilities — officially named “closed hospitality centers” — would be created on unused military sites under a €250 million ($332 million) program funded by the European Union.
The pledge came just weeks ahead of national elections expected by early May.
“Whoever (illegally) enters the country will be given hospitality and will be immediately asked to return home,” Chrysohoidis told a press conference. “Unless they are refugees … in which case they have a sacred right to asylum.”
