Euractiv writes that Andrej Babis opposes a plan to strengthen EU Borders, excerpt below:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Poland\u2019s premier on Monday (15 October) said he and his Czech counterpart oppose a plan to bolster the European Union\u2019s external borders, fearing they would receive less infrastructure funding if the scheme goes ahead.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The European Commission, the EU\u2019s executive arm, put forward the proposal in July to strengthen the Frontex border agency, whose headquarters are in Warsaw.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Brussels and Berlin notably believe the plan \u2014 which includes increasing the number of border guards to 10,000 by 2020 \u2014 will help the bloc better regulate the migrant influx.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But several southern and eastern member states have expressed concern that enlarging the role of Frontex will reduce their sovereignty.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cA significant increase in the number of Frontex personnel is in our eyes unfounded,\u201d Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told a joint press conference in Warsaw with his Czech counterpart Andrej Babi\u0161.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

\u201cThese kinds of proposals are indeed on the table. But nothing can be accomplished without money,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe worry that more money for Frontex will mean less money for structural funds, less money for road or railway development.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Of the eastern European countries that joined the EU in the 21st century, Poland is by far the biggest beneficiary of the cohesion policy, having received annually around \u20ac10 billion net in recent years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
