EU Allocates Additional €3 Billion for Border Control Enhancements

The European Commission has announced an allocation of an additional €3 billion aimed at bolstering border control measures, as stated by EU President Ursula von der Leyen. This funding is equivalent to over 35 billion Norwegian kroner. The announcement was made during a press conference alongside Germany's newly appointed Chancellor Friedrich Merz, according to reports from NTB.
🔎 Fact Check
The post is misleading. While the EU is indeed discussing additional funding for border control, the specific allocation mentioned (€3 billion) and the context of the announcement alongside Chancellor Friedrich Merz are not supported by the search results, which indicate ongoing negotiations and a focus on broader funding issues.
