Greece is planning to build a fence along its border with Turkey in a bid to keep out illegal immigrants, Citizen Protection Minister Christos Papoutsis said in an interview on Saturday.http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700096795/Greece-planning-border-fence-with-Turkey.html
"Cooperation with the other EU states is going well … now we plan to construct a fence to deal with illegal migration," he told the semi-official Athens News Agency ANA.
In the six months up to the end of November, 33,000 illegal immigrants have been detected crossing the Greek-Turkish land border. Most are from Afghanistan, Algeria, Pakistan, Somalia and Iraq.
Papoutsis said the 128-mile-long fence would be like the one erected by the United States along its frontier with Mexico.
Note how America is supposed to allow in millions of illegal immigrants, but Europe builds a wall after detecting 33,000!
