The Immigration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said that all member states have the responsibility to implement what has been agreed at European level.
He said the situation along the Balkan corridor is very critical. He added that the potential humanitarian crisis is real and very near. "We can not continue through unilateral, bilateral, or trilateral actions," said D. Avramopoulos noting that the first negative consequences are already visible. "We all have a collective responsibility towards neighboring countries within and outside Europe, but especially toward those people who are in despair ?, added the immigration commissioner.

The D. Avramopoulos said he has asked all Member States to respect the rules. He added that the Commission is working on a contingency plan within and outside the EU in which the IOM involved (IOM) and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and which will be ready in the coming days. He stressed, however, that the emergency plan can not replace the previous commitments made by EU countries.
Regarding Greece, the D. Avramopoulos said that the Commission monitor the situation closely. He added that Greece has taken its obligations, but needs our support to increase reception capacity and with the help of UNHCR and IOM.

Avramopoulos and concluded by saying that; now is the time for results ; and; there is no time to lose. "
