Public
broadcaster TV Slovenia says the country's government has bought part of a
fence that could be placed on the border with Croatia to control the influx of
migrants into the country.
The report on
the main evening news Thursday said 125 kilometers (75 miles) of the fence cost
1.5 million euros ($1.6 million). No other details were published.
Slovenian
officials have said a fence could be used to direct the refugee flow, not close
the 670-kilometer (400 mile) border as was the case in Hungary.
Prime Minister
Miro Cerar warned Thursday "we will not be able to hold out like this
forever."

150,000 people have entered the Alpine nation of 2 million since mid-October./AP
