21 October 2019
The OSCE Secretariat and Frontex, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency, agreed to strengthen their co-operation in combating cross-border crime, trafficking in human beings and addressing migratory challenges, in a Working Arrangement document signed last week.
The document, signed by OSCE Secretary General Thomas Greminger and Frontex Executive Director Fabrice Leggeri, covers different areas of mutual interest, including promoting and enhancing good practices in border management, ensuring fundamental rights protection of people at the borders, and continuing to develop capacities to address emerging forms of cross-border crime.
