05 November, 18:02

(ANSA) - LJUBLJANA - The Slovenian government will be ready to cope with the influx of refugees even if ''more restrictive measures'' are implemented in the coming days, ''if deemed necessary''. This was stated by Slovenia's prime minister, Miro Cerar, during an extraordinary session of Parliament in Ljubljana on the issue of migration.

Among the measures, somebody mentioned ''technical barriers'' and the chance to build these ''barriers'' on the country's border with Croatia.

Cerar will meet tomorrow with his Hungarian counterpart Viktor Orban in Lendava (Slovenia), where a Hungarian community resides. During the extraordinary session, the President of the Slovenian Republic, Borut Pahor, spoke about the possibility of a ''tighter control'' by the Austrian authorities, regarding the flow of migrants moving on towards north. If Austria implements restrictive measures, Slovenia will act accordingly, implementing restrictive measures in turn. (ANSA).
