Now better sense prevails in EU nations by refusing a safe haven to refugees..Croatia in Eastern Europe is predominantly Roman Catholic!
Migrant crisis: Croatia closes border crossings with Serbia
Croatia has closed seven of its eight road border crossings with Serbia following a huge influx of migrants.
Officials said they had no choice after more than 13,000 people entered the country since Hungary fenced off its border with Serbia earlier this week.
Many have been taken by bus to reception centres but some say they plan to walk to neighbouring Slovenia.
Huge numbers of people heading north from the Mediterranean have created a political crisis in the European Union.
Croatian officials said roads leading to the border crossings had also been shut.
Latest updates on migrant crisis
The crossing on the main road linking Belgrade and Zagreb - at Bajakovo - appeared to be the only one left open.
Local media reported severe congestion at the crossing, with a 6km queue of lorries back into Serbia.
