The Hidden Victims of Austerity in Greece

And it hits the most vulnerable: Refugees, including minors, who have left everything behind fleeing their countries to find safety. In Greece, they are left destitute and on the streets, unable to apply for asylum and threatened by escalating racist attacks. Trapped in Greece, they have one message for Europe and the rest of the world: Let us leave!
