In response to the ongoing challenges posed by terrorism and illegal immigration, Slovenia has announced an increase in border controls with both Croatia and Hungary. This decision follows the recent developments in Syria, which have prompted several European nations to suspend the processing of Syrian asylum claims. Slovenia’s Interior Minister, Boštjan Poklukar, discussed the issue with his Italian and Croatian counterparts, Matteo Piantedosi and Davor Božinović, during a meeting on Tuesday.
Slovenia tightens border controls
Several European countries, including Belgium, Greece, Croatia, Italy, Austria, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, have already suspended the processing of asylum applications from Syria, Economx reports. However, Slovenia has not yet indicated whether it will follow suit. The enhanced border checks are part of Slovenia’s ongoing efforts to combat illegal migration and terrorism, following concerns raised by the latest developments in Syria.
The three countries have agreed to continue discussions during a meeting of EU interior ministers later this week. Slovenia had reinstated temporary border checks on 21 October of the previous year after Italy introduced similar measures on its Slovenian border. Since then, both countries have periodically extended these controls in response to increasing migration pressures.

This is such an unfunny joke. Most illegal aliens destroy their papers and lie where they’re from, number one. Number two, what does “suspending asylum applications” mean? It doesn’t mean those crossing borders illegally claiming to be Syrian will be turned back; it just means their asylum claim will not start being processed.
The solution is simple: You turn up at a border without a passport and visa, you are turned back summarily, no ifs, no buts, whoever you are, whatever your story is. Hungary does it; the other 26 E.U. countries can, too. But they don’t want to, because they are pursuing different agenda.
And Jose: They will not return. They didn’t leave because they feared Assad. Assad had not been in control of more than half the country since 2011 so they could have moved internally if they had genuinely feared for their lives. They are all economic migrants, and not in the sense they came to the West to work; they came to leech off of our economy. They will never leave. Mass deportations are the only answer.
