I thought the children would drown.他们把我们的橡皮艇拖到了似乎被群山遮挡的水域，橡皮艇在水中打着转，最后我们只能用手往外舀水。我以为孩子们会被淹死。Najma and her family were on their third attempt to reach Greece when their boat was stopped and their fuel was seized by what appeared to be Greek security forces.纳吉玛和她的家人第三次试图抵达希腊时，他们的船被疑似希腊安全部队拦截，燃油也被没收了。But they were lucky. A passenger had enough fuel hidden away to get them back to Turkey.但他们很幸运。一名乘客藏了足够的燃料，让他们得以返回土耳其。When they caught our boat, I woke up as we were dragged back into Turkish waters.当他们追上我们的船时，我们被拖回土耳其海域，我醒了过来。I wasn't scared until I thought they were going to rip open our boat with pikes.直到我以为他们会用长矛刺穿我们的船时，我才感到害怕。On a previous trip, they made it to the Greek islands.在之前的一次旅行中，他们到达了希腊群岛。But they were soon arrested and left on rafts at sea before they were rescued by the Turkish coast guard.但他们很快就被逮捕，被扔在海上的木筏上，之后才被土耳其海岸警卫队救起。The New York Times recently reported Greece has secretly expelled more than 1,000 people in recent months, abandoning many of them at sea outside of Greek territorial waters.《纽约时报》最近报道称，希腊近几个月来已秘密驱逐了1000多人，还将其中许多人遗弃在希腊领海之外的海域。But Greece has denied any illegal activity, noting that it has rescued tens of thousands of asylum seekers in recent years.但希腊否认有任何非法活动，并指出近年来希腊已经解救了数以万计的寻求庇护者。The government adds it protects European Union borders vigorously with tough but fair policies. 希腊政府补充说，它通过强硬但公平的政策大力保护欧盟边境。
