LJUBLJANA, Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- Slovenian Prime Minister Miro Cerar has dismissed media claims of his country's responsibility for terrorists having transited the country together with the massive refugee wave late last year, local media reported.
Slovenia was among the smallest countries on the route and the first one on the Balkan route to register these things, he said, "wanting to make it accountable in any way would be utterly unfair," the Slovenian Press Agency reported quoting a statement.
Cerar stressed that Slovenia had warned individuals that may pose a threat to security could hide in such a huge mass of people, which is also why it has been striving to stop migrations on Europe's external border.
His statement came after a CNN report said two persons linked to those responsible for the Paris terrorist attack had travelled through Slovenia. Enditem
