    Basically everyone assumed Greece would handle it in a humanitarian way

    That may be more the way the article presents it - Frontex infamously replaced a more humanitarian approach under the guise of “cost savings” and then over the years grew their budget beyond what was spent on border crossings before they came into the picture, and now is under increasing scrutiny over how they just watch migrants die or even push them back - the Mediterranean border crossing is said to be the deadliest in the world.

      Frontex infamously replaced a more humanitarian approach under the guise of “cost savings”

      Isn’y it more like he moved the money to a pocketable one under the disguise of “cost savings”? Because that’s how these things usually work for politicians and bureaucrats.
