Greece, along with Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Denmark, is working to establish a center for the repatriation of undocumented or illegal migrants in Africa.

"We are working with four other countries - Germany, the Netherlands, Austria and Denmark - to establish a repatriation center in a country outside the European Union, especially in Africa," Greek Minister for Migration and Asylum Athanasios Plevris said on Wednesday local time to public broadcaster ERT.

He said his party had held a meeting with relevant ministers and a technical group would meet next week to discuss the details of the plan.

According to Plevris, migrants whose applications are rejected and not accepted by their home country will be sent to these centers.

He said detailed plans would be drawn up in the coming months, while the European Parliament needed to approve legislation allowing the establishment of the repatriation center.
