Kampf gegen illegale Migration: Unterwegs mit der Bundespolizei an der Schweizer Grenze

More and more migrants are entering Germany illegally via Switzerland. Both countries have agreed on controls, especially on trains. We are accompanying the Federal Police in their operations at the Swiss border. The number of asylum seekers crossing the Swiss border into Baden-Württemberg without permission increased significantly last year. The Federal Police in Stuttgart reported that four times as many people crossed the border illegally from the non-EU country into Germany than in the previous year. While 2,512 people were counted in 2021, the number rose to 10,472 in 2022. However, entry has also been increasingly prevented recently: While 1,065 people were turned back at the border by the federal police in January, the number had fallen to 698 two months earlier. ----- Here on ZDFheute Nachrichten, you'll find out what's happening in the world and what concerns us all: We provide insight into the news world, explain the background information, and address social debates.
