Summary/Abstract: Although the so-called “Balkan route” for the movement of refugees and migrants has been formally closed since 2016, the countries of the Western Balkans are still transit countries. Despite significant restrictions and limitations on movement introduced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, last year 41,257 migrants entered North Macedonia, 24,250 migrants entered the Republic of Serbia, and 3,149 new entries were registered in Montenegro.
