According to law, upon recognition a refugee gains almost the same rights as Greek citizens. Reforms in the asylum system resulted in changing the Greek negative record in protection rate in Europe (less than 1%) and increased it to average European levels. Still recognized refugees see no prospect of a stable life and safe future in Greece and decide to move to southern European countries.
