Germany plans to strengthen control at the borders with Poland and the Czech Republic because of the migration crisis. Moreover, the Minister of the Interior of the Federal Republic of Germany also spoke in favor of the fact that the German border guards can act directly in the territory of the Czech Republic. Scholz also promised to close the EU's internal borders. Berlin accuses Warsaw of issuing visas for money to migrants who then go to the Germans for benefits.
Olaf Scholz, German Chancellor:
“The visa scandal that is now happening in Poland needs clarification. I don't want Poland to just wave goodbye to us and then discuss our asylum policy. A situation where visas were somehow handed out for money makes the problem even worse. As agreed with the countries, we will have to adjust the situation at the borders and possibly take additional measures.”
