Now, migrants are increasingly choosing simply to fly into Germany instead of dealing with the long ordeal of crossing multiple borders in dangerous conditions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cms.zerohedge.com\/s3\/files\/inline-images\/AP744319214353.jpg?itok=lwdaoa6i\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>This increase in migrants flying into Germany jumped after Germany tightened border controls.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In May of this year alone, at least 977 illegal entries were recorded using air travel to enter Germany, accounting for over 20 percent of all identified illegal border crossings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>However, the true number of such crossings is likely much higher, as foreign nationals traveling within the Schengen area are not required to show identification. <\/strong>As a result, they are often only discovered long after they have left the airport, making it impossible to turn them back.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would be consistent to also notify the Schengen air borders,\u201d said Heiko Teggatz, a board member of the German Police Union (DPolG).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>\u201cIf the smugglers aren\u2019t completely stupid, they\u2019ll simply bring their people from other Schengen states to Germany by plane. Today, you can easily book a plane ticket within the Schengen area, and you generally don\u2019t have to show your ID anywhere.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>All of this information came from a government response from Interior Minister\u00a0<strong>Alexander Dobrindt (CSU)<\/strong>\u00a0after Alternative for Germany (AfD) MP Gottfried Curio, the party\u2019s domestic policy spokesperson, launched an inquiry.<\/p>\n<p>Dobrindt was forced to acknowledge that the tightened controls \u201crefer exclusively to the land borders,\u201d meaning no illegal migrants were turned back at airports.<\/p>\n<p>This trend of illegal entry by plane has intensified since the new federal government instructed officials to begin rejecting asylum seekers at internal borders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Teggatz confirmed this \u201cincrease in secondary migration via airports,\u201d noting that \u201cMedium-sized commercial airports like Hanover are particularly affected.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite hundreds of officers being deployed at German airports, checks are almost exclusively conducted on flights from outside the Schengen area. That means if a migrant makes it to Greece and manages to get on a plane to Germany, there is little chance he will be checked.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dobrindt, like his predecessor, Nancy Faeser (SPD), has reported rejections of migrants coming into Germany, but only from land borders. It remains unclear why airports were not included in tightened border measures.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rmx.news\/article\/you-dont-have-to-show-your-id-anywhere-1-in-5-illegal-migrants-now-simply-flying-into-germany-as-police-union-and-afd-rage\/\"><em>Read more here&#8230;<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>      <span class=\"field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden\"><a title=\"View user profile.\" href=\"https:\/\/cms.zerohedge.com\/users\/tyler-durden\" class=\"username\">Tyler Durden<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden\">Wed, 07\/02\/2025 &#8211; 02:00<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u200b<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/you-dont-have-show-your-id-anywhere-police-union-afd-rage-s-1-5-illegals-now-simply\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\">https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/you-dont-have-show-your-id-anywhere-police-union-afd-rage-s-1-5-illegals-now-simply<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;You Don&#8217;t Have To Show Your ID Anywhere&#8221; \u2013 Police Union &amp; AfD Rage s 1 In 5 Illegals Now Simply Flying Into Germany Via&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":1544830,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1544829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1544829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1544829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1544829\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1544830"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1544829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1544829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1544829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
