Refugee crisis: Hungary to extend border fence to Romania 

The Czech Republic has blamed Germany for the migration crisis in the latest round of mudslinging.
In a Twitter post Czech interior minister Milan Chovanec said: “The current biggest problem of solving migration is an inconsistent policy of Germany. And showing muscles to the neighbors across the border won’t conceal it.”
In her press conference German leader Angela Merkel called for greater European co-operation and an end to the blame game.
“We cannot manage this challenge by looking at someone else and telling them, ‘you’ve made this mistake’,” she said.
The Czech Republic and some other EU countries in the former Eastern bloc have rejected calls from Germany and the EU’s executive Commission for mandatory quotas to share refugees out.
Interior ministers of EU nations failed to agree to binding quotas at a meeting on Monday. The UN has expressed alarm at the EU’s inability to come up with a joint system.
Peter Sutherland special representative of the Secretary General of the United Nations for Migration, tweeted his frustration.
