Hello, I'm David Austin with the BBC News

A stand-off has developed in Hungary after riot police ordered a large number of migrants to get off train that left the capital Budapest. The authorities wanted to take the migrants to a transit camp that is part of a crackdown on the thousands arrived in the country. But many refugees are refusing to disembark while others are trying to get back on board. Gavin Hewett witnessed the scenes. The woman who was carrying a small baby began crying for help. And then one of her companions tried to help somehow that became a push and shove with the police and she then stood up on the railway line with riot police trying to put her back.And this of course inflamed all the other people on the train and then they break through the line. Some people who come off the train, go back on the train and they will prefer just to stay on the train rather than to go to this processing centre.

Police have now declared each go rail station and operation zone and told journalists to leave. The German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French president Francois Hollande said they presented joint proposals for the fair redistribution of refugees within the European Union.

Speaking later in the Swiss capital Bern, Mrs Merkel said everybody had to take part in the efforts." We have the duty to defend the rights of those in need. That Geneva Convention on refugees are binding, not just on Germany but on all the member states of the European Union."

Earlier sharp disagreements emerged over how best to deal with the crisis in talks betwwen Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orban and European Union leaders. From Brussels, Chris Morris. Mr Orban said the migrant crisis was a German problem not a European one because all the migrants wanted to get to Germany. He said Hungary is only doing its duty and migrants should be told to stay away. But the president of the European Council Donald Tusk publicly rebuted Mr Orban. He said a fair distribution of migrants and refugees across the EU was essential. Europe should help people in need.
