Warsaw (dpa -Afx) – Poland wants to start with Germany on Monday with temporary controls on its common border. According to the authority, a total of 52 border crossings should be checked by random. The border guards will have an eye on buses, minibuses and cars with many inmates, but also vehicles with tinted windows. The controls should start at midnight and initially last until August 5. During this period, it also wants to check at his border with Lithuania.
Poland’s center-left government has ordered the controls to respond to German border controls. Germany has been checking randomly on the border with Poland since October 2023 to stop irregular migration.
Federal Minister of the Interior Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) had more intensive border controls shortly after the new Federal Government started in May. At the same time, he ordered that asylum seekers can also be rejected at the border in the future. The rejections from Germany in particular are a stimulus topic in Poland./Dhe/dp/he
