New EU border force plan targets migrants to Greece

A proposal to give the EU's executive the power to independently send forces into member states to defend the common European frontier will likely face resistance from some countries when it is published this week.

The European Commission wants to be able to deploy personnel from a new European Border and Coastguard Agency without the consent of the state concerned, as is currently required, EU officials told Reuters in early December. The plan reflects frustration with Greek reluctance to seek help in controlling the migrant influx.

The Commission will introduce the plan on Tuesday to reinforce its Frontex agency with up to six times more staff, EU officials said.
