SOFIA: Bulgaria is ready to build a fence on its border with Greece to keep out migrants amid fears they could head its way after the Western Balkan route was closed, Prime Minister Boiko Borisov said on Friday.
Parliament last month voted to let its army assist police in guarding the European Union member’s borders to avoid a refugee influx that has overwhelmed some of its neighbours.
Bulgaria shares a border with Greece to its south that is about 500 kms long. "The main threat is coming from the Greek border," Borisov told parliament on Friday.
