Germany has moved to toughen its asylum policies as Finland and Sweden announced plans to deport tens of thousands of people in a bid to contain the migrant crisis.
Sigmar Gabriel, the vice chancellor, announced that Germany would place Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia on a list of "safe countries of origin" -- meaning that migrants from those countries would have little chance of winning asylum.
Some migrants would also be blocked from bringing their families to join them in Germany for two years, Gabriel said.
