Greece is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights and the U.N. Geneva Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and Convention against Torture, and the Greek Constitution guarantees basic human rights to all Greek citizens.

Amnesty International and other human rights groups have accused the various governments of Greece of varying degrees of human rights abuses, which were highest during the periods of rule by dictatorship, most recently 1967 to 1974.

Current issues include treatment of minority groups such as Roma, political asylum applicants[1], immigration law and the treatment of refugees, and the practices surrounding conscription.
