Some countries on the eastern edges of the European Union are rejecting more than half of Syrians who seek asylum, the U.N. agency said. Greece, for instance, has fallen short in protecting Syrian refugees, agency spokesman Adrian Edwards told reporters in Geneva. The country rejected every one of the 115 Syrian asylum applications that it weighed between January and June, according to European Commission statistics.

Human-rights groups have long complained that Greece throws up steep barriers to those seeking asylum; the country contends that it bears an unfairly heavy immigration burden because of its location on the Mediterranean Sea.
