"I thought this before, I think it even more now: the Greek people are showing the world how to be human. They are showing the world how to try to help fellow human beings. I thank personally all those who are helping the refugees from all over the world. Greece can't solve this problem and yet Greece has given us the most important lesson of all: the lesson of humanity."

The actress toured the camp and spoke with migrants before sending a plea for other governments to step forward and help Greece in solving the humanitarian crisis.
