- Published on 19 Oct 15

a. Germany
b. Slovenia
c. Hungary
d. None of the above

ANSWER: Hungary
 
Hungary has closed its border with Croatia to prevent free flow of migrants from Asia, Africa and the Middle East for a better life in Western Europe. Closure has prompted migrants to seek passage through Slovenia to head towards Austria and Germany. Slovenia has indicated it would increase border controls and create entry points for migrants and keep accepting them till the borders of Austria and Germany are open. Croatia has indicated it will close the border with Serbia in case Slovenia adopts the same approach for it.
