FILED - 28 October 2021, Brandenburg, Frankfurt (Oder): A federal police officer stands at the German-Polish border crossing Stadtbrücke in Frankfurt (Oder) during entry into Germany. Federal Interior Minister Faeser wants to register stationary border controls for the borders with Poland, the Czech Republic and Switzerland with the EU Commission. As was learned from government circles in Berlin on Monday, controls by the federal police directly at the border, as they have existed since 2015 at the border with Austria, should also be possible at these border sections in the future.
