Slovenia reinstated border
controls with Croatia and Hungary at midnight, temporarily
suspending the Schengen Treaty on free movement. A decision
taken because of security dangers and terrorist threats related
to the flow of migrants along the Balkan route. A similar
measure was taken by Italy on its border with Slovenia, and by
nine other EU countries in light of the new armed conflict in
the Middle East. The restrictive measure on border controls will
remain in effect for at least 10 days, with the possibility of
extension.
