Snippet: Niemiecki Związek Zawodowy Policji (GdP) opowiada się za ograniczeniem liczby funkcjonariuszy policji federalnej prowadzących kontrole na granicy polsko-niemieckej – podała agencja DPA. Zamiast tego większy nacisk należy położyć m.in. na kontrole na dworcach – ocenił przedstawiciel GdP w Berlinie i Brandenburgii Andreas Broska. Według niego liczba zatrzymań na granicy od miesięcy spada, dlatego obecny poziom zaangażowania personelu nie jest już uzasadniony.
