Germany Implements Six-Month Border Controls Across Nine Borders to Curb Illegal Migration
Sep 16, 2024, 06:37 AM
Germany has announced the implementation of temporary border controls across all its nine land borders starting from September 16. This measure, set to last for six months, aims to curb illegal migration, counter terrorist threats, and combat organized and cross-border crime. The decision follows a surge in asylum applications and a series of extremist attacks that have heightened public concern and increased support for the far-right Alternative for Germany party. The move has sparked protests from neighboring countries and tensions within the European Union. The German government will conduct ID checks and increase police presence at the borders to enforce these controls.
