Poland’s Tusk Plans Border Controls with Germany Amid Schengen’s 40th Anniversary and EU Migration Talks

Poland plans to introduce border controls at its border with Germany, according to Prime Minister Donald Tusk. This decision follows Germany's move to return migrants labeled as 'illegals' back to Poland. The announcement coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Schengen Agreement, which established a borderless travel zone across much of the European Union. Despite the original goal of eliminating internal border checks, temporary border controls have increasingly become common within the Schengen area. European Union interior ministers are meeting to discuss issues related to migration, internal security, and the continuation of temporary protection for those fleeing Ukraine. The anniversary has highlighted tensions among Schengen member states regarding migration and security policies, with some officials emphasizing the need for Europe to regain control over its external borders. Reports from the border regions indicate that border checks are being reinstated, challenging the foundational principles of the Schengen zone.
