  1. That's how they are referred to in the EU legislation and by the International Organization for Migration. Crossing a border is not illegal, remaining in the country for longer than you are eligible to, is.

  2. True, but that just puts the burden on a handful of countries with external borders.

  3. It's not illegal to enter a country, what's illegal is to remain there for longer than you are eligible to.

  4. Who wants to move to Hungary anyway?

  5.  @mrtee3477  No, you don't get arrested because of it. "Entering a country in an irregular manner, or staying with an irregular status, is not a criminal offence but an infraction of administrative regulations."

  6. Do you really need the military to check identification cards?

  7. ​ @ilmaurizetazetaerre Is this the procedure in the Polish border for people coming from Germany?

  8. Did you just pick two random African countries? 😄

  9.  @andrzejnadgirl2029  And who's to say those are invalid? You, a random commenter on YouTube? Well, regardless of your astonishing command of the English language, I prefer to go with the EU and the International Organization for Migration own glossary.

  10. Poland? Where do you think a huge chunk of them arrive from?

  11.  @wvvwwvwvv  I meant many of them enter through the German/Polish border not that they are Polish. If Poland is so great at keeping borders safe how do they travel through the country?

  12.  @sivaganeshk123  This is not comparable to cancer in the 4th stage.

  13.  @sivaganeshk123  Because a country is not comparable to a person with a terminal disease. Unless you talking about Haiti or Sudan.

  14. Probably because you don't have to cross the border everyday. It's not a bad measure per se but will cause quite some hassle for many people.

  15. The army to check for identification cards? I think they have better things to do.

  16. That's quite the dramatism there for just border checks. 😂

  17.  @dntbther  Poland and Hungary are very different cases, Poland borders Belarus where immigrants are being used as pawns so they have rightfully built a fence to prevent them from entering. In Hungary, regardless of the border issue, Orban is basically a xenophobe.

  20. ​ @Joey-ct8bm For some reason these guys have a fetish with Poland but then ignore basic facts like those you just wrote.

  21.  @jamesbrittain5659  Yes, it's annoying for those who have to cross the border everyday for instance

  22. It would all fall on some Eastern European countries.
