Slovenia announces it will build fences on it's border with Croatia if EU does not solve refugee problem by tomorrow, Sunday, October. 25th, 2015.
Slovenia will join Hungry as the second European country to introduce fences to enforce control if it's border, if the illegal border crossing problem is not solved by tommorrow, Sunday.
Slovenia, like Hungary, is a Schengen Area country, but also like Hungry, it's border with Croatia ( a non-Schengen Area country ) is not a border that is required to be a "so-called" open border by the terms of the Schengen Treaty.
The open borders requirements of Schengen only apply to the internal borders of the Schengen Area, the border between Slovenia and Croatia ( like the border between Hungary and Croatia, and the border between Hungary and Serbia ) is an external border of the Schengen Area, and as such is not subject to the Schengen "so called open borders" requirement."

Slovenia's president declared that if the EU summit fails to produce an acceptable solution to the crisis, his nation will act on its own.
"Slovenia cannot become a pocket in which refugees would be stuck if the Austrian and German borders close, because the country could not handle that," the state STA news agency quoted President Borut Pahor as saying.
Pahor did not elaborate, but other Slovenian officials have suggested a possible fence along the border with Croatia. Slovenian police estimated Saturday that some 13,000 people had entered the country in the last 24 hours and 58,000 had arrived in the last week.
