Greece annuls humanitarian sea rescue award
By EUobserver
Greece has annulled an award for humanitarian aid worker Iasonas Apostolopoulos, known for his work with rescuing migrants and refugees at sea. Greek president Katerina Sakellaropoulou had announced Apostolopoulos would receive the award, but his name was then removed from the list, amid reported pressure from right-wing politicians who oppose his work.
