Not only Budapest and Warsaw, but not even only Central and Eastern Europe, but Athens and Copenhagen, and almost half of the EU member states as a whole demand that the European Commission abandon its idealism regarding immigration - warned Le Figaro in his statement Jean-Thomas Lesueur, director of the Thomas More Institute, who saw that these member states recognized the danger of destabilization.

The interior ministers of twelve member states (Austria, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia and Cyprus) sent a letter to European Commissioner Margaritis Schinas on October 7, expressing their dissatisfaction with the common migration policy - emerges from the conversation with Lesueur.

The letter was addressed to Margaritis Schinas, responsible for the promotion of the European way of life, and Ylva Johansson, Commissioner for Home Affairs. Despite his polite and constructive tone

this letter is a warning against European migration policy and a call to the Commission to act

Lesueur points out.

The signatories offering to discuss and amend the "Strategy for a stronger and more resilient Schengen area" presented by the Commission in June do not hesitate:

According to them, the Schengen Border Control Code, adopted in 2006 and revised in 2016, "does not deal sufficiently with the illegal crossing of external borders", "does not offer clear rules", and does not propose tools for "serious threats".

According to this concept, Europe could only take meaningful steps in the case of the above-mentioned, so-called serious threat.

Lesueur points out that in the recent period, in addition to Poland and Hungary, ten other member states have made their voices heard regarding the issues of migration and the European legal order. According to the analyst, this is a sign that these countries also recognized the danger of destabilization .
