Thousands of refugees and migrants, most fleeing violence in the Middle East, mass at the sealed-off border, chanting „Open! Open!“ They are desperate to cross into Hungary, but a razor-wire fence, temporary blockade and a line of riot police stand in their way. As tensions escalate, one voice rises above the fray: A balding, bearded man, wearing a black and white tracksuit top, attempts to negotiate with the officers. „Nobody will make any problem to your country,“ he tells the officers at Horgos, near the town of Roszke, using a loudspeaker. „Nobody will make any problem to any policeman. You must understand this — we come here for peace, just to pass.“
