From Monday, Germany wants to introduce border controls. Also with Poland. A heavy strain on relations, says Deputy Foreign Minister Władysław Teofil Bartoszewski. ....
I wonder....was an immigrant-welcoming Germany not always also a bone of contention with our neighbours? They should be relieved now....
....How will the planned border controls affect Poland ?
Negatively. And we were a little surprised because we had not been informed in any way beforehand. We found out about it when the German Interior Minister made the decision public. That is a somewhat unusual way of dealing with your neighbors.
How will it practically affect the everyday life of people travelling between Poland and Germany ? Negatively too. Our transport industry is one of the largest in Europe, and a lot of trucks cross the border every day. This means a big disruption. Germany has de facto decided to suspend the Schengen rules. We cannot be happy about that.
Some are already talking about an end to Schengen .
No, but that is the end of the spirit of Schengen and of European cooperation. We expect urgent consultations at EU level. You cannot surprise your neighbours with decisions like this. I know that there will also be a sharp reaction from Austria. That is not how you treat partners.
Don't sweat it, the whole situation is abit chaotic here and nobody knows anything....we have an unusual rare dim-witted interior minister who does everything wrong she only can!
Blame her! She is an idiot, she deserves it!
