Evros fence: solution to illegal immigrants?


The minister of citizen protection, Christos Papoutsis, announced that authorities plan to build a fence along Greece’s 206-kilometer land border with Turkey --similar to the US-Mexico frontier-- in an effort to curb a seemingly endless influx of illegal immigrants, something that created a debate and many different reactions. On the one hand, the politicians and political parties advocate the construction of the fence, and on the other hand, there are many with specific arguments on human rights abuse, high construction costs, and others who believe that is doubtful whether the construction of the fence will reduce illegal entry of immigrantsThe only sure thing is that Greek society has exceeded its ability to absorb any more illegal immigrants in the country, but can an a decision like that be effective against the increasing waves of immigrants? Is this a drastic measure against massive illegal immigration?
