Greece-Macedonia Border Becomes Battleground As Migrants Forcibly Halted

muslim illegals greece and macedonia

BreitbartLondon: The Greece-Macedonia border is holding back an increasing flood tide of stalled migrants as authorities on both sides of the frontier try to stem the human flow travelling overland through Greece.

Greek authorities estimate almost 2,000 migrants have crossed into Macedonia from Greece, a bare 24-hours after the border closed down following violent clashes between migrants and riot police.

More than 3,000 people remain stuck on the Greek side of the border, as Macedonia and other Balkan countries refuse to let them pass. They say they are economic migrants seeking jobs and opportunity, not refugees fleeing war. Both countries cite a lack of funding and trained officials to assist in processing the chaos.

Those refused entry to Macedonia threw stones on Friday at Greek riot police, who have been struggling to maintain order ever since.

The Daily Mail reports Greek authorities have provided free trains and buses to carry the economic migrants back to Athens, where they will be offered the chance to seek asylum in Greece. However nearly all those entering Greece from Turkey want to keep moving north to live in wealthy European countries such as Germany or Sweden.  Read More

  1. I’m surprised Macedonia and Serbia let the muzzies in in the first place. Both countries have had to deal with muslim threats – – Macedonia with Albanian encroachment in the west, Serbia with Kosovo (which is just Albania encroaching on Serbian territory). In fact I’m surprised their armies didn’t pulverize the invaders. I spent the summer of 2007 in western Macedonia and near riots were breaking out between muslim and Macedonian youth on the weekends. The Albanians there are more successful than the Macedonians because their mafia is very powerful. And it doesn’t help out that Macedonians stab each other in the back.

  2. If I were in charge of a country being overrun by these vermin, I’d be facing charges at the world court in 48 hours (but my country wouldn’t have any more migrant problems).
