Cersei, Arya and Davos are currently hundreds of miles apart in Westeros, but the actors who play the conflicted characters are using their “Game of Thrones” fame to urge European leaders to provide more aid for the thousands of Syrian and Afghan refugees coming in from across the Mediterranean Sea.
Actors Liam Cunningham, Maisie Williams and Lena Headey have traveled to Greece to meet with refugees on behalf of the International Rescue Committee. They discussed the recent agreement the European Union made with Turkey that allows Greece to return refugees to Turkey on the grounds that it is a “safe third nation.”
