The European Commission will provide an additional 3 billion euros to EU countries to implement a new migration policy, European Commission President Ursula von der Lion said.
"It is important to implement our Migration Agreement, make it a reality. And this happens due to investment and great hard work. I am glad to announce today that we will provide an additional 3 billion euros to this topic. This is the result of medium-term review.
"We will have stronger foreign boundaries," he said at a joint press conference with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
Earlier this year, the European Commission had proposed to tighten the fight against illegal migrants, including the creation of prisons for illegal migrants outside the EU, although it is not intended by European rules.
