Ljubljana officially introduced border checks with neighbouring Hungary and Croatia on Saturday following a similar move made by Italy due to an upsurge of violence in the Middle East. Italy&#8217;s far-right government also suspended an open-border agreement with Slovenia effective from Saturday for 10 days.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement reflects increasing security concerns in Europe due to the war between Israel and the Hamas militant group. On Thursday, European Union interior ministers debated how to manage the impact of the war on the 27-nation bloc after a firebomb assault on a Berlin synagogue and separate killings in Belgium and France by suspected Islamic extremists. EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson said in Luxembourg that the commission is looking into the issue of internal border checks, which she described as one of the challenges of the Schengen area. \u201cEven if it is justified by severe things, internal security or illegal border crossing, internal border controls also hamper free movement,\u201d said Johansson. \u201cWe need to avoid it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The shooter in the Belgian attack, a Tunisian national, had been denied residency in four European countries and was issued a deportation order from Belgium in 2021, but disappeared from sight. It was only after he killed two Swedish men on Tuesday, that officials were able to track him down. He was shot dead by police as they tried to arrest him. Slovenia&#8217;s Interior Minister Bo\u0161tjan Poklukar presented the details at the EU meeting in Luxembourg. He said authorities are expected to set up special checkpoints for EU citizens and local residents living in the border area. Slovenia, Italy, Croatia and Hungary are all among the 27 countries that belong to the Schengen area, the world\u2019s largest free travel zone. The Schengen nations can temporarily reintroduce border controls \u201cin the event of a serious threat to public policy or internal security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>P\u00e9ter Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3, the foreign minister for Hungary&#8217;s staunchly anti-immigration government, attributed Slovenia&#8217;s decision to EU immigration policies that he said were endangering both the physical security and economic prosperity of European countries. \u201cEurope\u2019s economy is suffering as border controls within the Schengen area hinder and slow down trade and the cross-border operations of businesses,\u201d Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 wrote on Facebook. \u201cIf Brussels does not change its migration policy, we could find ourselves where we do not want to be: in an era of Europe torn apart by old borders.\u201d In Zagreb, Croatia&#8217;s Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovi\u0107 expressed hope that the decision would be temporary. Such measures are not new, Plenkovi\u0107 added, and are the result of &#8216;increased migration movement and (or) terrorism threat.&#8217; \u201cIt must remain an exception,\u201d said Plenkovi\u0107.<\/p>\n<p>Italy&#8217;s right-wing government on Wednesday said authorities in the northeastern border region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia had identified 16,000 people so far this year who had entered Italy illegally across the Slovenian border. Other countries that are introducing border checks within Europe&#8217;s Schengen area include Denmark and Sweden, while France intends to keep checks in place until at least May 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2023\/10\/22\/slovenia-to-introduce-border-checks-with-hungary-and-croatia\">Euronews<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/118735\/\">Slovenia introduces border checks with Hungary and Croatia<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1316,11946,3233,2113,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-117872","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-border","tag-check-hungary","tag-croatia","tag-slovenia","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117872"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117872\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117872"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117872"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
