MegaMind Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 About 4,000 have arrived in Slovenia, the UN refugee agency says. Most aim to travel on to Austria, Germany and other countries.Slovenia's army has been placed on standby to help police deal with the influx, Prime Minister Miro Cerar said.He said Slovenia would accept the migrants as long as Austria and Germany kept their borders open.Hungary said it had closed its border with Croatia at midnight on Friday because European Union leaders had failed to agree a plan to stem the flow of asylum seekers.Last month it also shut its frontier with Serbia, which was another transit route to Western Europe.On Saturday, hundreds of refugees were bussed across Croatia, from its border with Serbia to its border with Slovenia.Many had spent weeks walking through Greece, Macedonia and Serbia to reach the Croatian border.Migrants arriving in Europe615,895arrived by sea so far in 2015216,054arrivals for whole of 2014 Source : http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34564830 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bashar Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I don't blame them, I blame German government who invited people to take the risk and go to Europe feeling they are doing legit thing. In the past, only hundreds were trying to do the same every week or so. Now I can assure you 12 millions are preparing to do the same in the next year or so.
