The district administrator of the Märkisch-Oderland district, Gernot Schmidt (SPD), considers the introduction of temporary controls at the border with Poland to be sensible in view of the increasing illegal entry into Brandenburg via Belarus.
"Our partner Poland leaves the Federal Republic out in the rain," said Schmidt of the "Märkische Allgemeine" (Tuesday).
Migrants are likely to move on without their personal details being recorded.
Beeskow - In his opinion, the easiest way to check entries is at the bridge connections such as the Autobahn 12 near Frankfurt (Oder) and the Bundesstraße 1 near Kostrzyn.
The Belarusian ruler Alexander Lukashenko announced in May in response to tightened Western sanctions against his country that Minsk would no longer prevent migrants from continuing to travel to the EU.
Brandenburg's Interior Minister Michael Stübgen (CDU) told the rbb-Inforadio: "Here we have the situation that over a hundred refugees come every day, increasing, which of course brings our immigration authorities to the limits of their capacity." The federal government wants according to his information accelerate the forwarding of refugees from Brandenburg with a registration center.
