Germanys open-door policy to refugees appears to be unravelling tonight after the country reinstated border controls to curb the overwhelming influx of migrants.
Europes top economy halted all trains from Austria and, in an historic move, temporarily suspended the open borders Schengen Agreement in response to the arrival of tens of thousands of Syrian refugees in recent days.
The decision marks a dramatic shift away from the current abolishment of passport checks throughout Europe's Schengen zone.
The Interior Minister did not specify how long the border controls would remain in place or give details of exactly how incoming migrants would be handled. He said there could be disruption to rail travel. Most migrants have been arriving by train.
Germany's national railway, Deutsche Bahn, said it had halted service between Austria and Germany for 12 hours at authorities' orders.
The rules of Europe's passport-free travel zone, known as the Schengen area, allow countries to reintroduce controls in exceptional circumstances, and the European Commission said that 'the current situation in Germany ... appears to be a situation covered by the rules.'

A 12 hour suspension of rail travel ... I saw that and wondered just how long the ban might really be? Should be permanent but they'll never do that.

Reminds of the ancient Assyrians who would replace the country they just conquered with their own. Then they’d take their vanquished away into slavery or sold to others.
