ATHENS (Reuters) - A decision by Balkan states to limit the flow of migrants through the region is creating a 'mini humanitarian crisis' in Greece, Greek Migration Minister Yannis Mouzalas said on Wednesday.

"Its scandalous... that five police chiefs can overturn a decision of European Union ministers on the matter," Mouzalas told Reuters.
