Germany‘s decision to establish controls at all of the country’s land borders has become a threat to the Schengen system of free movement between European countries. This was reported by the Financial Times (FT), Day.Az reports with reference to Lenta.ru.
It is noted that the actions of the German government to reduce the influx of migrants as part of the fight against terrorism could “cause a domino effect.” So the new Prime Minister of France Michel Barnier has already said that Paris will follow Berlin’s example and may expand its border controls.
Earlier, German Interior Minister Nancy Feser ordered the introduction of temporary control measures at all land borders of the country. Full border controls were introduced on September 16. The German government has developed “an effective opt-out model that is in accordance with European law.”
In August, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said measures to deport illegal migrants should be strengthened. He made such a statement against the backdrop of an attack in Solingen, where, during a city holiday, an unknown person of Arab appearance attacked people with a knife. The politician emphasized that not all people coming to Germany can stay in the country.
