匈牙利筑围墙阻挡移民

Hungary has begun the construction of a 100-mile-long fence across its border with Serbia in a bid to stem the 'untenable' flow of migrants entering the country.
匈牙利已开始在与塞尔维亚接壤的边境上修筑100英里的围墙，以防难民“涌入”境内。

So far this year more than 67,000 people, mostly from Kosovo, Afghanistan and Syria, have illegally crossed into the country in a desperate attempt to reach the EU.
2015年以来，逾6.7万人非法越境进入匈牙利，不顾一切想要进入欧盟国家。这些难民主要来自科索沃、阿富汗和叙利亚。

Located on the outskirts of the town of Morahalom, a bulldozer and other heavy machinery began preparing the ground for construction on July 14.
一辆推土机和一些重型机械于7月14日在莫拉哈隆市郊开始了动工筹备工作。

The mayor of Morahalom, Zoltan Nogradi, said he had not been told in advance about the start of construction, but welcomed the initiative. 'There has been no better idea to resolve this untenable situation,' he said.
莫拉哈隆市市长佐尔坦•诺格拉迪说，他没有提前收到动工的消息，但他对这项行动表示欢迎。他说，“这是解决这种不堪一击情形的最好想法。”

In the face of criticism from Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel, government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs said Hungary was committed to building the fence, which it claims is a temporary measure. Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto had said earlier the 13ft-high fence would be built first in the eight to 10 areas 'most exposed to the immigration pressure' along the 100mile-long border between Hungary and Serbia.
面对德国总理安格拉•默克尔的批评，匈牙利政府发言人佐尔坦•科瓦奇表示，匈牙利下定决心修筑围墙，政府将之称为临时措施。外交部长彼得•奇亚托此前曾表示，高13英尺的围墙首先将在匈塞100英里边境线上移民压力最大的8到10个地区修筑。

Hungary has registered almost 70,000 migrants so far this year, compared with 43,000 in the whole of last year. Most migrants travel on to wealthier parts of the EU, but Hungary's government has said those states might send illegal migrants back to Hungary. It blocked just such a move last month, provoking tensions with Vienna.
今年以来，匈牙利已注册了近7万移民，而去年全年移民人数为4,3万。大多数的移民都前往更加富裕的欧盟国家，但是匈牙利政府说这些国家可能会将非法移民送回匈牙利。匈牙利就在上个月阻止了这一举动，使得匈牙利与维也纳的关系也很紧张。
