Refugees broke through a police cordon near the village of Roszke, close to Hungary's border with Serbia, Monday, as they attempted to continue their journey to Western Europe. The group were later stopped by police, half guided to a so-called "reception centre" nearby, the other half gaining access to a motorway leading to Budapest. Scuffles broke out between the refugees and police on the road after Hungarian law enforcement attempted to block the travelers from continuing. After several altercations, police finally allowed the group to continue towards the Hungarian capital. The refugees chanted "Budapest Budpaest" and "Germany" as they walked. Hungarian authorities have taken radical measures in early September to deal with the unprecedented number of people crossing their borders, many without documentation. Officials firstly closed Budapest's main station with trains leading to Austria, Germany and other Western European destinations. The transport block led to a temporary encampment being set up in the Hungarian capital, with around 3,000 refugees settling near the city's Keleti station. When the station re-opened, many boarded trains that were destined for processing and detention camps, not other countries as the refugees had been told. Thousands have protested against the authorities' decision outside the station. The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has taken a strong line on the crisis, blaming Europe and Germany in particular for "misleading" people by encouraging the impression that Europe can accommodate more refugees. Orban claims that the refugees are in the most economic migrants. Several Eastern European leaders are attempting to discourage migration routes through Europe, with other Euorpean states calling for a mandate to allow large numbers of refugees to settle within the EU, with nation states sharing the numbers. As of Friday, Hungary has closed its border with Serbia, making it an offense to cross without documentation, with punishments of up to three years in prison. The country has also set up "transfer zones" to process those within the country, seeking to deport those it judges not to be "genuine" refugees.
