The Polish government reintroduced border control measures between Lithuania and Germany due to growing public concern over what many say is irregular migration.

SLUBICE, Poland -- Poland reinstated border controls on Monday with neighboring Germany and Lithuania following similar German restrictions imposed earlier this year aimed at discouraging asylum-seekers.

Poland will temporarily reinstate border controls with Germany and Lithuania. Prime Minister Donald Tusk made the announcement on Tuesday, after Germany announced stricter migration policies under Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
