Röszke (Hungary) (AFP) - Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has vaunted the razor-wire fence being laid along the Serbian border as the only answer to stop tens of thousands of migrants from getting in.But a visit by AFP made clear that for people hardened by war in their home countries, treacherous journeys across the Mediterranean and trekking hundreds of miles, Orban is going to have to try harder."We fear neither the Hungarian police, nor the fence," Nasreen, a 29-year-old Syrian woman, told AFP after scrambling through the fence from Serbia and heading off into the safety of the European Union."It's nothing compared to what we have been through in Syria," she said."The country has been destroyed, we have faced bombs, assassinations, blood, and deaths on a daily basis."Clad in jumpers despite the late-summer heat, she says the extra layers will help once the nights get colder as they go north from Hungary towards the holy grail of Germany or Sweden.A 25 year-old IT expert from Iraq, trying to make it to Belgium where he has family, was similarly unfazed by the three rolls of razor wire."I don't care about fences or about police.
