SAMOS, Greece, Jan 15 — French right-wing presidential hopeful Valerie Pecresse today slammed the EU’s “sieve-like” borders for allowing migrants to enter undetected and backed calls for barbed-wire fences to prevent them crossing illegally into the bloc.
“We cannot have a sieve-like Europe, a supermarket Europe where you enter and leave as you please,” the conservative politician, who styles herself as a cross between Margaret Thatcher and Angela Merkel, said. The new camps come with barbed-wire fencing, surveillance cameras, X-ray scanners and magnetic gates that are closed at night.
But the 54-year-old head of the Greater Paris region was full of praise for the facility, calling it a “model” for Europe that blended “firmness” and “humanity” and helped reduce the flow of migrants across the Mediterranean.
