VIENNA (Reuters) – Austria is introducing checks at its border with the Czech Republic, Austrian news agency APA reported on Tuesday, citing an Interior Ministry spokesperson.
Austria recently continued its policy of matching the Czech Republic’s checks at the border to Slovakia to prevent any spillover as the countries seek to tackle illegal immigration through the Balkans and Hungary. The Interior Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters.
