The situation in the Greek refugee camps has deteriorated further, according to Development Minister Gerd Müller (CSU). After the destruction of the Moria camp on the island of Lesvos by fire, there has been no improvement, Müller told the "Passauer Neue Presse" (Saturday edition).

"These are appalling conditions - in the middle of Europe." The hardest weeks of winter are still ahead for the refugees, he said. read more
