Slovakia decided to temporarily reintroduce controls on Slovakia’s internal border with Hungary. Border controls will be in place from Thursday 5 October until 14 October.
The Slovak government decided on Wednesday to temporarily reintroduce controls on Slovakia’s internal border with Hungary, Paraméter reports. The temporary border controls will be in place from Thursday, 5 October, until 14 October. The 10-day measure may be extended.
“The checks will be carried out along the entire length of Slovakia’s internal border with Hungary, in a flexible manner depending on the current threat and the evolution of the security situation,”
the document presented by the Interior Ministry says.
The aim of the measure is to reduce the number of illegal migrants trying to reach other EU countries through Slovakia.
On 3 October, both Poland and the Czech Republic introduced temporary controls at their borders with Slovakia in response to increasing migratory pressure. The Slovak government may have reacted by reintroducing Hungarian border controls, Telex writes.
The measure will last for ten days for the time being, but can be extended.

Interesting, Slovakia,Austria and other countries abstained during a vote on new migration policy. Yet, Slovakia, Austria, the Czech Republic have strong border checks or closures. These countries are “two faced”. Hungary’s border works. However, there are not enough people in the country to repel all un educated criminals of the world. Hungary should increase the strength of the electric current that runs through the border wall. According to research info, the border was mined mined during the communist regime. The mine field was used to keep people from leaving. Now, this method can be used to keep people out. It is also more economical.
