Poland has reinstated border controls with Germany and Lithuania due to similar measures by Berlin, as announced by Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The controls aim to combat illegal migrant smuggling, affecting mainly buses and vehicles with tinted windows. The checks will last for 30 days, with potential extensions. Tusk expressed growing impatience with Germany over migration issues, while German Chancellor Friedrich Merz defended the measures, emphasizing the need for cooperation to address irregular migration. Concerns have been raised about the impact on freedom of movement and commuters.
