Serbia is bearing the brunt of the costs of providing care to migrants - the costs are enormous and Serbia cannot bear that burden on its own, Vulin said, adding that "the EU and other donors are still not paying the required amount of attention" to the problem of the large influx of migrants in Serbia.

Serbia has received EUR 40,000 - 50,000 from international organisations, RSD 6 million from the UNHCR, as well as about RSD 11.3 million in food and equipment, he said.

Asked whether Kanjiza and Subotica - Serbia's northernmost cities - can expect financial assistance, Vulin said that both cities will get accommodation for migrants, while Kanjiza will open a reception centre for people returning from Hungary under a readmission agreement, and that the wall being erected on the Hungarian border is forcing the migrants to move northward more quickly.
