Federal Interior Ministry Nancy Faeser wants to extend the stationary controls at the borders with Poland, the Czech Republic and Switzerland for another twenty days. The SPD politician said on Wednesday in Berlin.

Faeser had registered the fixed controls on October 16 for an initial ten days with the EU Commission. She wants to limit irregular immigration and fight smuggling crime more strongly. With regard to the new 20-day period, Faeser said, "After that, the consideration would be whether to extend three months. But that will then be decided anew depending on the situation." Germany had spoken with its neighboring countries and would at least make an extension in any case still.
