ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece asked the European Union Friday to press member states to speed up the relocation of migrants, after a fire raged through an overcrowded refugee camp, killing two people and seriously hurting two others. Human rights groups strongly condemned the loss of life and blamed it on the intransience and inattentiveness of governments across Europe. "How many more people need to die in a tent, trying to keep warm, before EU and Greek authorities take action?" said Loic Jaeger, head of mission in Greece for the relief agency Doctors Without Borders, or MSF. Despite the overcrowding, EU member states have accepted fewer than 4 percent of the migrants they are committed to hosting under the bloc's Emergency Relocation Mechanism.

Source: www.dailykos.com - Friday, November 25, 2016 Many of the words our language uses to describe forms of government come from Greek: democracy, autocracy, oligarchy, monarchy, and so on. There’s also another Greek term that you might not have encountered before called kakistocracy, or rule by the worst possible people . Trump has only been the president-elect a mere two weeks, but he has already sparked outcry over promising key appointments to white nationalists, unqualified sycophants, and those with troubling ties to Vladimir Putin’s Russia. With congressional Republican leaders acquiescing to Trump’s nominees , America is poised to have a government run by the worst sorts imaginable. Trump’s very first appointment was Steve Bannon as his chief political strategist. Before joining Trump’s campaign, Bannon ran the alt-right hate site Breitbart, which spreads far-right xenophobia while masquerading as news . He is an anti-Semite and white supremacist, and Bannon has boasted of how he wants to create an international alliance with far-right parties across the world .  Neo-Nazis and former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke praised Bannon’s selection . He has never served in government before, but will now be the chief adviser to one of the most powerful men in the world, proving Trump’s racism wasn’t just campaign talk. If picking a quasi-fascist for chief adviser weren't bad enough, Trump announced he would nominate Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions as attorne All Related

[European Union (L) and Turkish flags fly outside a hotel in Istanbul, Turkey May 4, 2016. REUTERS/Murad Sezer]REUTERS/Murad Sezer BERLIN (Reuters) - The European Union should not freeze Turkey's negotiations to join the bloc, Germany's Foreign Ministry said on Friday, a day after members of the European Parliament voted in a non-binding motion in support of such a freeze. "It is important that we keep talking," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Sawsan Chebli told a regular government news conference. "It is important that we do not freeze the accession negotiations because that would only further damage the relationship between Turkey and Europe, and that would not be in the interest of Turkey or of Europe," she added. EU lawmakers called on Thursday for a temporary halt to Turkey's accession talks because of what they called Ankara's "disproportionate" reaction to July's failed coup. Turkish authorities have detained or dismissed more than 125,000 people - including soldiers, academics, judges, journalists and Kurdish leaders - over their alleged backing for the coup, in what opponents, rights groups and some Western allies say is an attempt to crush all dissent. Members of the European Parliament voted 479 to 37 in favor of the non-binding motion urging the European Commission and national governments to implement what lawmakers acknowledge would be a largely symbolic freeze in negotiations that have been going on for 11 years but have long been stalled. In response, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan warned on Friday that Turkey could open its gates for migrants to Europe if pushed into a corner by the EU. Under a deal clinched in March, Turkey has agreed to take back illegal migrants and refugees leaving its shores for Greece in return for aid and visa-free travel for Turks in Europe. The deal has slashed the number of migrants reaching the EU. Chebli said the deal remained in the interest of both sides. "If one looks at the facts, then it is the case that both sides are sticking to the agreement and we hope that remains the case as it is in the interests of both sides," she said.
