Deputy Minister of Interior and Administration Wiesław Szczepański during a press conference in Kołbaskowo said that the control on the Polish-German border takes place at 52 points and at 13 points with the Lithuanian border. These are 16 permanent checkpoints at the Polish-German border and 2 permanent checkpoints at the Lithuanian border - he added. In practice, this means extended queues and waiting times, especially for commuters or goods haulers.
