EC says Poland can use Frontex support to secure border with Belarus

The European Commission has reiterated that Poland can use assistance from EU border agency Frontex to protect its border with Belarus, where hundreds of migrants are trying to enter the country. Poland and the Baltic countries have accused the Belarusian government of pushing migrants across their borders in an effort to destabilise those countries as well as the EU. On September 2, Poland declared a 30-day state of emergency along its border with Belarus.
