1,213 Western Union Money Transfer Stock Photos, High-Res Pictures, and Images - Getty Images

Part of a ripped up Western Union money transfer receipt from Damascus in Syria is seen after it was discarded beside railway tracks that run from Serbia into Hungary and is used as a route by migrants to enter illegally into Hungary and the European Union on August 13, 2015 near Szeged, Hungary. Since the beginning of 2015 the number of migrants using the so-called Balkans route has exploded with migrants arriving in Greece from Turkey and then travelling on through Macedonia and Serbia before entering the EU via Hungary. The massive increase led Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban to order Hungary's army to build a steel and barbed wire security barrier along its entire border with Serbia, after more than 100,000 asylum seekers from a variety of countries and war zones entered the country so far this year. Although very few asylum seekers choose to stay in Hungary, preferring to move onto northern European countries, under EU law they can be returned to Hungary if they are later detained in another EU state.
