Germany to Enhance Border Security Measures Amid Rising Migration Concerns and Public Safety Fears

ai generated text

Germany is set to introduce temporary border controls at all its land borders with neighboring countries, starting on September 16, in response to recent terror attacks and concerns over irregular migration. The controls, ordered by Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, aim to limit migration and protect against threats from terrorist groups and cross-border criminal organizations. The measures follow a knife attack in Solingen, where three people were killed, and a similar attack in Munich. The controls will be in place for six months and will be implemented in collaboration with neighboring countries. The German government has stated that the controls are necessary to strengthen security and continue its tough stance against irregular migration.

    1. It's the law. I have directed the head of the federal police to not allow any returns.
    1. We have a duty to take a close look at who is coming. It's not just about migration, it's also about internal security, terrorism and organized crime.
    1. We are doing everything in our power to protect the people of our country against these threats.
    2. Until we achieve strong protection of the EU's external borders with the new common European asylum system, we must strengthen controls at our national borders.
    3. It is important for us to act in close partnership with our neighbours and to minimise the impact on commuters and everyday life in border regions.
    4. We are strengthening our domestic security through concrete action and we are continuing to pursue a hard line against irregular migration.
