webfact Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Stopped at the final hurdle: migrants blocked at Russia-Finland borderHELSINKI: -- Winter is not the only obstacle to contend with for migrants trying to cross the northern route from Russia into Finland and the European Union and Schengen Zone.The Finnish border control service has placed heavy restrictions on asylum seekers wishing to enter the country by land from Russia, including a purported ban on crossing by bicycle.As Russia doesn’t allow the border to be crossed on foot, and many don’t have access to a car, the bicycle ban would mean dozens from Afghanistan, Lebanon, Iraq and other countries, would be prevented from reaching Scandinavia. So far this year, more than 600 migrants are believed to have entered Finland from Russia.Norway has received some five and a half thousand migrants. It is sending back anyone with Russian visas or residence permits. -- (c) Copyright Euronews 2015-12-29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Moo Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 there is no end to the amount of people fleeing, its what they are fleeing from that's important Steve 187, Fleeing? Some are, but what about the tens of thousands of young able bodied single men that are claiming to be "refugees"? BS, they are being sent by their masters to infiltrate Europe in readiness for their planned take-over. Send them all back and start the selection process one case at a time.

thaibeachlovers Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Stopped at the final hurdle When they should have been stopped at the first hurdle, about a million ago. Still better late than never, the Euro are finally realising they have willingly unleashed a huge and unsustainable problem onto their countries, and are doing something about it. I wonder what will happen to the illegal economic migrants trapped in Russia. Somehow I don't think the Russians will be as welcoming as Sweden, and I doubt any speak Russian.

Oh the poor refugees stuck on that border. How can they have easy access to welfare and free housing? This is so upsetting and it must be against their human rights Edited December 31, 2015 by jaidam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostnigel Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Western Europe is under attack. What will be left for me to go home to. ? You will need your passport, maybe... whatever happened to old fashioned passports and visas? It seems now that refugees on the borders can say "i demand my children go to school in Germany", or "we demand to be allowed to cross your countries, and get to the UK".....<deleted>?
