Border control expenses vigorously defended by the EU
In an interview with the "Rheinische Post" (Friday edition), Alexander Throm, the CDU's interior affairs expert, defended the high costs of border controls by the Federal Police. The interview comes as a response to criticism regarding the high costs of border controls.
Throm asserted that the security of the population and the protection against illegal migration should be worth every euro. He also stated that the protection against illegal migration is a reason for the high costs of border controls. The security of the population, he believes, justifies the expenditure.
However, Throm did not discuss any specific measures taken by the Federal Police that contribute to the high costs. Nor did he provide detailed arguments justifying the high costs of border controls in Germany. The search results do not provide such specifics, instead focusing on Throm's stance on increasing deportation rates and stripping asylum seekers of their right to legal support to speed up deportations.
Throm's comments were made in the same interview where he emphasised the importance of maintaining a secure population and protecting against illegal migration. He remains adamant that the high costs of border controls are justified.
