The government has decided to declare a “migration state of emergency” after the Balkans route was closed down through special measures taken by Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia at their borders, and human traffickers started recommending refugees divert their path through Hungary, according to reports.
Pintér said they did not know what impact these steps would have among refugees and “illegal migrants” already present in those countries, which is why the government has chosen to strengthen the Hungarian border, Hungarian news agency MTI reported.
Although a decision has not been made on the possible construction of a fence along the entire Romanian border, such a fence could be completed in just ten days, the interior minister said according to reports.
