MIL-OSI Europe: Written question – Securing the EU’s external borders in the context of new migration flows – E-000996/2025

Source: European Parliament

Question for written answer  E-000996/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Daniel Buda (PPE)

Rising geopolitical tensions and instability in various regions of the world have triggered a new wave of migration to the European Union. The Member States at its external borders, including Romania, are directly affected by these flows and have responsibilities to maintain border security and also deal with asylum applications. At the same time, the pressure on asylum infrastructure and national resources is growing, and the EU’s capacity to react is often inadequate. In this context, Romania, as a border country, has to deal with additional challenges and needs additional support to bolster security and deal with migration flows efficiently.

  • 1.As the migration flows at the European Union’s external borders intensify, what concrete steps does the Commission plan to take to support the Member States on the front line, including Romania?
  • 2.Are there any plans to increase the logistical, financial and operational support for FRONTEX in vulnerable regions?
  • 3.Furthermore, in view of the social and economic implications of dealing with migrants, how does the Commission intend to support their integration, without affecting the stability of local communities?
