Istanbul / Van (Turkey), Aug 26 (EFE / EPA) .- An extremely guarded and largely walled border, repatriations and, apparently, even hot returns. This is what awaits the majority of Afghan refugees trying to reach Turkey from Iran.Unlike what happened in 2011, when the war broke out in Syria and the millions of people who fled there found the border with Turkey open, now the Eurasian country is shielding itself at full speed.FOOTAGE OF THE BORDER BETWEEN IRAN AND TURKEY, A DEPORTATION CENTER AND AN OPERATION CARRIED OUT BY THE TURKISH SECURITY FORCESSOUNDBITES FROM A MIGRANT TRAFFICKER AT THE IRAN-TURKEY BORDER (THE FACE AND VOICE OF THE INTERVIEWEE HAVE BEEN CHANGED) 1. "We give money to Iranian soldiers to make things easier at the border. That work is easy, but in Turkey things are more difficult. We cannot solve it with money. When we solve the problem in one part, our work is done, half as easy. Sometimes we direct migrants to other routes."2. "It varies, (immigrants) pay between $ 350 and $ 600 (from Iran to Turkey)."3. "They pay between $ 1,000 and $ 1,100 from Afghanistan to Turkey. At least that."4. "(In Europe) We take them mostly to Italy. They pay $ 8,000 to go to Italy."5. "We prefer Italy because it is easier. Sometimes they want to go to Greece. If only one person travels, we charge 2,000 dollars. The road is very dangerous, we drive from Edirne to Bulgaria. It is very dangerous and risky. Families are not accepted, we take families to Italy. We cannot guarantee it because it is very dangerous. "
