> since there's not a lot of migrants coming from the arctic circle

That's not true at all.

Finland closed the entire border with Russia because Russians kept ferrying migrants to Finnish border. Russia had tried the same tactic against Norway, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland too. Strong response prevented the issue from snowballing out of control like in the Mediterranean where we see one artificial justification after another why nothing can be done.
