"Big drop" in number of migrants arriving by sea
"The monthly figure for November is the first one this year that actually shows a decrease compared to the previous one. The reasons for the slowdown in the number of arrivals have to do with fluctuation in climate conditions in the Aegean but also a crackdown on smuggling by Turkish authorities," he said.According to Spindler more than 880,000 asylum seekers reached European shores in 2015 - "about four times the total in 2014."
