Belarus offers neighboring countries The EU will return to cooperation in countering illegal migration. This was announced today, September 18, by the press secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic Anatoly Glaze.

A representative of the Belarusian Foreign Ministry commented on Germany's decision to control its borders.

"In our opinion, these measures by Berlin were a response to the ineffectiveness of Poland and the Baltic states on the external borders of the European Union in terms of ensuring the migration security of the EU and the main destination country of migrants — Germany. At the same time, everyone knows that efficiency in this matter cannot be achieved by building fences or other forceful methods. All relevant international organizations say that it is necessary to solve this problem only through integrated efforts and only through the cooperation of all involved actors. Here is a recent telephone conversation between Federal Chancellor O. Scholz and Polish Prime Minister Dmitry Tusk on the topic of migration policy, which was reported by the press service of the German government, just testifies to Warsaw's irritation with Berlin's actions," he said.

According to him, Minsk "fully shares the approaches of the German leadership announced to the press and Poland on the need for "close cooperation between European partners" in countering illegal migration."

"But another attempt by Berlin and Warsaw in a conversation with each other to accuse Belarus of some kind of instrumentalization of migration does not stand up to any criticism. Less than half a percent of all migrants entering the EU enter there through our territory. At the same time, we have repeatedly offered neighboring member countries The EU should return to normal professional cooperation in countering this global challenge. They have offered and are still offering, if they really care about this problem," said the Eye.

He also noted that "it remains a mystery to us why the same disadvantaged people who arrive in the EU by hundreds of thousands through the Balkan, Mediterranean and other routes are migrants who need to be rescued and accepted, and several thousand migrants entering the EU through Belarus are "instrumentalized" migrants. which can be killed and maimed at the border."

"It is difficult to find a normal explanation for this fact of extreme cynicism and double standards," summed up the Eye.

Recall the migration crisis on the border of Belarus with the countries The EU started in 2021. Poland, Lithuania and Latvia refuse to accept migrants from the Belarusian side.
