Why should places like Turkey and Hungary be punished just because of the geographic accident of being closer to Syria?
the turks are free to do what the hungarians are doing and keep them out if they decide they don't want them. doesn't bother me one way or the other.
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone's got one, and don't delude yourself that yours doesn't stink.
If the gateway countries like Turkey *deny refuge* and force the unwanted people to keep moving onto the next country, exactly how does that turn them into "economic migrants"?
turkey hasn't denied them refuge. they were living in camps in turkey set up and funded by western and arab countries until some of them decided they didn't like the conditions there.
the definition of a refugee is someone who has applied for asylum somewhere and been accepted. if you are in a safe country already living in a refugee camp, and decide to sneak in somewhere else because you heard they'll give you a free apartment and education or whatever, you stop being a refugee in that second country. the people illegally entering europe are regular migrants.
