Italy is even going outside the EU to establish links with the United Kingdom to crack down on unwanted arrivals.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was blunt about how far Europe's leaders still are from reaching a consensus before they met in Granada, Spain.
Orbán, who has pushed back against EU policy repeatedly and taken a hard-line approach against migration, said that he won't sign off on any deal at any point in the foreseeable future.
He went as far as to compare the situation to being “legally raped” by Hungary's fellow EU members.
“The agreement on migration, politically, it’s impossible — not today (or) generally speaking for the next years," Orbán said.
