The inflows of refugees and migrants to the port of Piraeus have been reduced to practically zero, since the two ferries “Ariadni” and “Blue Star 1” that docked earlier in the morning carried no refugee from the islands of Aegean Sea.
Only 300 refugees arrived on the island of Lesvos on Tuesday, with arrivals greatly reduced in recent days. Local officials however expect that the implementation of the EU-Turkey agreement will further reduce arrivals.
With refugees likely seeking alternative routes into Europe, the drop in arrivals at the port of Piraeus is dramatic, with the main ferries not transferring any in their latest voyage.
