Skopje, August 22 (RHC)-- In news from Europe, Macedonia has declared a state of emergency and sealed its southern border with Greece after more than 40,000 migrants have flooded into the country over the last two months.
Macedonian Interior Ministry spokesperson Ivo Kotevski announced the move, saying: "The Macedonian government has decided to declare a state of emergency in crisis regions, on its southern and northern borders, so, according to laws, army can be deployed on the territory of the Republic of Macedonia."
The majority of migrants have been passing through Macedonia in efforts to reach Germany, Britain and Sweden. But with the border between Greece and Macedonia now sealed, thousands are stranded in a no man’s land between the two countries.
