(CNN) — Greece on Thursday said it is recalling its ambassador to Austria amid disagreements over the handling of Europe’s migrant crisis.
The move comes a week after Austria announced it would let no more than 3,200 new entries into the country per day and take only 80 applications for asylum daily.
And it comes a day after Austria held a meeting with Balkan states to address the migration crisis — a meeting to which Greece, the nation through which the vast majority of a surge of migrants from the Middle East and central Asia are accessing Europe, was not invited.
“Unilateral initiatives to resolve the refugee crisis and the violations of international law by EU member states are practices that can undermine the foundations and the process of the European integration,” the Greek Foreign Ministry said Thursday.
