Poland has sharply criticized Germany’s decision to impose temporary controls at all its land borders to curb irregular migration, with Prime Minister Donald Tusk deeming the move 'unacceptable' and a de facto suspension of the Schengen Agreement. Tusk argues that the focus should be on strengthening the EU’s external borders, particularly Poland's eastern frontier, which faces a migration crisis orchestrated by Belarus and Russia. Austria also criticized Germany’s decision, refusing to accept any migrants turned back by Germany. German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser defended the controls, stating they are necessary to address surges in irregular migration and improve security. The new controls, set to last for six months, extend existing measures at borders with countries like Poland, Austria, and the Czech Republic.
