Szydło: We expect increased EU border controls by March

Prime Minister Beata Szydło announced that she expects the European Council to agree to measures designed to tighten control at EU borders and effectively limit migrant inflow. Speaking in Prague on Monday evening after a summit of the Visegrad group, Szydło said that "sensible solutions" are needed to address Europe's current problems, and that "The [group's] adoption of a common position today shows that such solutions are possible." The Polish leader was in Prague for talks with the leaders of the other Visegrad group countries, as well as Bulgaria and Macedonia. The main subjects discussed was the renegotiation of the UK's membership in the EU and the possible consequences that could have for Eastern European migrants living there.
