Στους νέους που εγκατέλειψαν την Ελλάδα την περίοδο της κρίσης και αναζητώντας ένα καλύτερο μέλλον στην Αυστραλία, αναφέρθηκε ο επικεφαλής του ΜέΡΑ25 Γιάνης Βαρουφάκης.


“Do you want Australia to behave to these Greeks, children of the crisis, of ‘memorandumistan’ (bailouts) to say for for want of a better word in the same way in which you are proposing, with Moria and hot spots?”, Yanis Varoufakis, head of the MERA25

Mr Varoufakis was asking about the Moria detention camp on the island of Lesbos, a facility designed for 3,000 but holding more than 13,300, where there has been frequent tension and clashes, including a recent riot that led to a fire killing a woman and her child.
