Migrants on the frontier of Europe
January 20, 2011, Evros border/Thrace, Greece: In November last year the European Union's border police sent emergency forces to help guard Greece's borders. Most illegal migrants enter Greece through its 200km border with Turkey. Between 70 to 90% of irregular migrants enter Europe through Greece and the country is struggling to cope. All the detention centers in the area are full and the government has backlog of at least 60,000 asylum cases. Those that make it across the River Evros or past the heavily patrolled 12.5km land section of the border, walk through acres of marshy land, wheat and asparagus fields until they reach an inviting village. Many of them walk for hours through mud and swamps, following the train track south towards Alexandroupolis. Other migrants seek shelter in abandoned buildings, discarding passports and ID along the way in order to say they are from countries Greece cannot deport them to, such as Afghanistan, Palestine or Somalia.///An immigrant shows of his temporary papers after leaving a detention center as he prepares to board a bus to Athens.
