January 4, Pozirk. The Polish Border Guard said<\/a> 14 foreigners tried to illegally cross into the European Union from Belarus over the past day. Border guards also detained five Ethiopians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lithuania and Latvia have not registered any border violations since the start of 2024, Lithuania\u2019s State Border Guard Service said<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month, Poland thwarted 23 illegal border crossings on its shared border with Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, illegal border crossings between Belarus and the EU soared by 32 percent with at least 42,078 attempts of which 25,571 via Poland, 13,863 via Latvia and 2,644 via Lithuania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pozirk<\/em>\u2018s analysis of daily stats indicated fluctuated tension at the Belarusian-EU border throughout 2023 with a significant decrease by the end of the year and in early 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The migration crisis at the Belarusian-EU border started in spring 2021 after Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka, angered by EU sanctions, had indicated that Minsk would not prevent migrants from Africa and Asia from using Belarus as a route to the EU. It escalated in November 2021, with hundreds of migrants storming the Polish border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Baltic states and Poland accused Belarusian authorities of creating the trouble, while the latter blamed it on the West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August 2023, the interior ministers of Poland and the Baltic States warned that they would close the border with Belarus in case of a surge in illegal migration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
