<P><BIG>Hi,</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Imagine you’ve fled violence in your own country, crossing international
borders on foot, or through terrifying journeys by sea. Now you’re living in a
refugee camp ravaged by a global pandemic - and the country you’re in won’t even
let you apply for asylum.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>That’s exactly the situation for refugees in Greece right now. [1]
<STRONG>They’re facing worse conditions than ever. And with no asylum process
running, there’s nothing they can do about it.</STRONG></BIG></P>
<P><BIG><STRONG>The European Union was founded on a shared commitment to human
rights.</STRONG> Now those values are being thrown into question. We need to act
fast and turn up the pressure on our campaign to stand up for refugees: to
protect them, and defend the values that underpin the EU overall.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>We’ve already found a legal team to challenge the Greek government for
free. But now we need to gather the evidence to back it up - and doing this
specialist research costs money.</BIG></P>
<P><STRONG><BIG>Can you chip in, so we can stop the Greek government and the EU
turning their backs on refugees?</BIG></STRONG></P>

<P><BIG><STRONG>Right now, the situation in Greece is dire.</STRONG> There is at
least one report of <STRONG>migrants dying as they tried to cross the
border</STRONG> without permission [2]. Within refugee camps, there are
rumours of <STRONG>African residents being subjected to racist beatings and
abuse.</STRONG> [3] <STRONG>People with health conditions are struggling to
survive the pandemic</STRONG> in unclean, crowded conditions.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Our lawyers will soon file a complaint with the Commission about the
Greek government breaking EU law on their treatment of migrants. Because it’s so
important, they’ve taken the case for no charge. <STRONG>The lawyers' support is
already a huge breakthrough for the campaign,</STRONG> saving us tens of
thousands of Euros.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Can you contribute so that we can <STRONG>build a case and protect
migrants coming to Europe, </STRONG>now and in the future?</BIG></P>

<P><BIG>Although the EU has issued guidance saying that asylum applications must
continue despite coronavirus, [4] <STRONG>Greece needs to be pushed to ensure
asylum applications start again.</STRONG> Some EU leaders have even tweeted that
they support Greece in shutting down the application process. [5]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><STRONG>But 100,000s of WeMove members are stronger than a few lone
voices showing off on Twitter. </STRONG>Already, we’ve delivered a letter signed
by 100,000 of us, from all over Europe. Now we need to <STRONG>show Europe’s
leaders that we won’t go home </STRONG>just because they ignore us - we’ll turn
up the volume instead.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Can you chip in, so we can take our legal fight for Europe’s refugees to
the next level?</BIG></P>

<P><BIG>P.S. By bringing this case to the Commission, our aims are twofold. We
want to ensure that Greece and all Member States<STRONG> respect the right to
asylum</STRONG> for hundreds of people fleeing war and poverty, and make sure
that <STRONG>the EU heightens its humanitarian response ensuring that asylum
seekers are relocated from Greece to other EU countries</STRONG> equitably,
fairly and humanely. <STRONG><A
