Baku-APA. Greece has threatened to block decisions at a forthcoming EU migration summit if sharing of the refugee burden is not made obligatory for member states, APA reports quoting Associated Press.

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said Wednesday that from now on Greece "will not assent to agreements" unless all its partners are forced to participate proportionately in the relocation and resettlement of refugees.

A senior government official, who spoke on customary condition of anonymity, clarified that Tsipras was specifically referring to the March 7 summit on immigration.
