AlQa'dah 29, 1436, September 13, 2015, SPA -- Hungary is set to curb the record inflow of migrants with tougher laws and possibly a military deployment at the border and also said Sunday that the European Union should send police to the Greek border. dpa reported. All EU nations should contribute to help Greece stop immigrants from making it to Europe, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said. More than 150,000 people, mostly refugees from Syria, traversed the Balkans this year - from Turkey, across the Greek Aegean islands and mainland, Macedonia and Serbia - to arrive in Hungary, the gateway to the EU border-free Schengen zone. "Greece is incapable of protecting its borders," Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said, adding that Hungary is ready to send personnel to Greece to help it do so. Hungary's conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orban's cabinet has taken steps to curb the surge of migrants across its border. A fence along the 175-kilometre frontier with Serbia is nearly completed, and on Tuesday, a law imposing prison terms against border trespassers comes into effect. Anyone without proper documentation caught crossing the border will face up to three years in prison while anyone who cuts the border fence can get up to five. Also on Tuesday, Orban's cabinet might declare a crisis situation, paving the way for parliament to allow the army to join police in patrolling the border zone.
