EU plans major expansion of Frontex border agency

The European Union is planning a substantial expansion of its border protection agency Frontex. According to a report in Süddeutsche Zeitung, the strengthened agency is intended to help member state governments in crisis situations and to speed up deportations across Europe. The plans are associated with EU Home Affairs Commissioner Magnus Brunner and touch on the ongoing political debate over asylum and migration policy in the bloc.

Why now: Migration and deportation policy is a contested topic in Europe, and the proposed expansion of Frontex directly affects EU asylum debates.
