Hardly. The requirements alone to become a Frontex agent are miles away from the ones needed to be a ICE thug.
Despite the sensacionalist title this group is doing mostly an harmonization of policies and increase efficiency along the Schengen area, something basic for an area with no internal borders and that is essential to keep Schengen alive.
The alternative is what we've been seeing, national borders being resuscitated.
Supporters of these agreements highlight their value for the European Union’s strategic autonomy. They argue that the deals will help reduce risks not only in trade relations with China, but also with the United States. Less dependence – commercial and energy-related – means greater firmness vis-à-vis autocrats such as Donald Trump or Vladimir Putin. Yet this fact is often overlooked in Europe’s public debate.
The Portuguese PM is in tune with everyone else in the EU except Spain. The Spanish leader is the outlier. Why the hell anyone would expect the Portuguese PM (right wing) to side with the Spanish one (left wing depending on far-left support)?
The title only shows ignorance about Portuguese politics and an idiot assumption that we are a minion of Spain of some sort. 9 centuries successfully keeping Spanish interference away and we still need to read this bs titles.
Hey, I hope this is within the topic of the community. I just really enjoy European co-productions that show bits of 2 or more countries, it's the kind of thing that really boosts a common European imaginary.
TV co-productions I loved include:
Des Gens Bien French-Belgian black humor/crime series on the border between both countries.
Parlement German-French-Belgian comedy about the European Parliament, absolutely fantastic and very educational.
Chegar a casa Portuguese-Galician (Spain) family tragic-comedy on the border region, so heart warming.
Orban already said and did much worse against Ukraine. Orban's actions in the EU have real consequences on the war... Truly a scumbag of a politician, Hungarians should feel ashamed for electing him.
When a regime kills 30.000 protestors in a few days don't be surprised that their exiled family members ask the regime to be bombed. I fully understand them.
Note: this is a referendum on whether to restart the negotiations. I assume a second one would be needed if this one passes and negotiations are concluded.
