EUROPEAN UNION COULD COLLAPSE UNDER MIGRANT STRAIN, WARNS SLOVENIAN PM

The European Union could collapse if it cannot agree to concrete measures to stem the flow of migrants that have flooded Europe this year. That is the warning from Slovenian Prime Minister, Miro Cerar, who can only foresee one outcome if the crisis cannot be solved. “If we don’t deliver concrete action, I believe Europe will start falling apart,” he said.

 

Mr Cerar sent out his dramatic call to fellow central and eastern leaders gathered in Brussels for emergency talks on Monday. He was speaking nine days after Hungary’s move to seal its southern border drove unprecedented migrant tides into tiny Slovenia, all on their way to Germany to take advantage of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s offer of unconditional sanctuary to any and all migrants who arrive on the country’s doorstep.

 

“If we don’t find a solution today, if we don’t do everything we can today, then it is the end of the European Union as such,” Cerar said.

 

German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who pushed for the meeting to be called, said: “Europe must show it is a continent of values, a continent of solidarity … This is a building block but we need to take many further steps.”

 

Migrants on the so-called Balkans route switched to Slovenia a week ago when Hungary closed its border with Croatia. Since October 17, more than 62,000 refugees have arrived in Slovenia, with some 14,000 still passing through the country on Sunday alone.

 

Smaller countries along the Balkan route say their resources are stretched by the number of people arriving.

 

Jean-Claude Juncker, the EU’s chief executive, called the leaders of Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia to Brussels to seek a common approach.
