Of the € 6.4 billion of the EU budget (2021-2027) for border management, 114.5 million are allocated to Poland, while Hungary 80 million (including emergency funds). “The position of the European Commission – said the spokesman of the Community Executive, Eric Mamer – is that EU funds should not be used to build walls, which does not mean that physical barriers should not be built”.
On Poland’s announcement of the construction of a wall on the border with Belarus intervened Pope francesco: “In recent decades, history has shown signs of a return to the past: conflicts are rekindled in different parts of the world, nationalisms and populisms reappear at different latitudes, the construction of walls and the return of migrants to unsafe places appear as the only solution that governments are capable of to manage human mobility. In these forty years and in this desert, however, there have been signs of hope that allow us to be able to dream of walking together as a new people towards an everlasting us. bigger”.
