A spokeswoman for the Federal Police Directorate told Editorial Network Germany (RND, Thursday editions). She expects this trend to strengthen in the coming year.
“In 2021, a total of 57,637 illegal border crossings were detected, the total number for 2021 was already exceeded in September 2022,” said the spokeswoman. This year, from January to October, 70,814 illegal border crossings were recorded and another 12,695 were added in November alone. According to information, illegal migration through the Balkan region in particular contributed strongly to development.
The federal police does not foresee a break in the trend for the coming year – on the contrary: “The current development makes it clear that the rising trend of unauthorized entry into the EU and also into Germany will continue in 2023 or possibly accelerate further”, said the spokeswoman RND .
