EU, not trafficker, should decide who come to Europe: Austrian chancellor

Kern said he believes the better protection of EU border could be a solution of the migrant crisis, though the influx of the illegal migrants has been slowing down.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel told media that the EU wants to stop illegal immigration while living up to humanitarian responsibilities after the talks.

Austrian and German leaders agreed that the situation of the migrant influx is better than 2015, however, more progress should be made in the future.

"Seventy percent of the target has been reached," said the Austrian chancellor in regard to migrant influx after the Vienna summit, but noting the EU should make more progress.
