Honestly in the short term this will affect tensions between the refugees and Europeans that much is obvious. The long term though I have no clue even if most European countries decide to close their boarders. with Europe's open boarder policy It would take at least a year to get everything set up properly and I guarantee you once refugees hear that fences and security are going up along the boarders of European countries they will just travel faster to get to those countries before they close completely. Worst still even if this plan goes off without a hitch and no more refugees come into Europe (which realistically would never happen). Europe still has to deal with and process the hundreds if not millions of refugees already there. Basically I feel like the Paris attack is just going to spread more paranoia and make people believe in knee jerk reactions that would only really be a very short term solution.
