‘Big, beautiful’ walls don’t stop migrants in the US or Europe

The next barbed wire fence, not quite a wall, was erected by Greece in 2012 in an effort to seal its land border with Turkey. This was a relatively unsophisticated fence that ran through the land strip of the Greek northeastern border with Turkey for 12.5km. It was originally budgeted at €5.5 million but eventually cost €3.16 million. The fence was fully financed by Greece, as the European Commission refused to contribute.

Trump wants to build 30-foot-high wall at Mexican border
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration wants to build a 30-foot-high border wall that looks good from the north side and is difficult to climb or cut through, according to a pair of contract notices posted to a government website further detailing President Donald Trump’s promise to build a “big, beautiful wall” at the Mexican border.

Archdiocese of Mexico : Working on border wall immoral
In its weekly newsletter the Archdiocese warns, “Any company intending to invest in the wall of Trump, would be immoral, but also all its shareholders and owners should be considered traitors to the homeland.” It also stresses, “Signing up for a project that is a serious affront to dignity, is shooting yourself in the foot.”
