Ireland’s open borders are used by Albanian traders as a backdoor to bring illegal immigrants to the UK.
Albanian smugglers abuse lax Irish border security to smuggle illegal immigrants into the UK, according to a report released Monday.
UK government officials have described Ireland’s weak immigration system as a threat to UK security, and the country’s handling of migrants and refugees has drawn criticism from the UK and elsewhere.
However, according to the report TelegramAlbanian criminals also abuse the centuries-old open border between Ireland and the UK to bring illegals into the UK, forcing smugglers to fly into Dublin Airport before arranging a private flight taxi to take migrants to the UK. .
The entire process reportedly costs around £2,500 (~US$2,900), or about half what a migrant boat would pay to cross the English Channel into the UK, but illegals are also reportedly required to obtain their own fake EU ID. To use the Dublin route.
“You need to get a fake European ID to get to Dublin easily,” an Albanian smuggler told an undercover journalist that the route is “100% safe.”
The smuggler also told the reporter that if they were stopped in Dublin by border control, they would have to make a fuss about applying for asylum and they would be free in half a day.
“If you’re stopped in Dublin, make a big fuss, make a tragedy,” said the smuggler. “If you apply for asylum, they’ll let you go within 12 hours.”
Meanwhile, the taxis used to transport migrants across the border to the UK are reportedly operated by Irishmen, who reportedly collaborated with dockers to ensure human cargoes could enter the UK unhindered.
“They’re from Ireland. They know people who work on the steamers. He pays them too,” said the smuggler.
“I have been working with these Irish people for many years. Nobody will bother you. No problem. We’ve been busy,” he continued. “I’ve just arrived in Dublin.”

TelegramReports of criminal organizations in Albania abusing open borders are abusing Ireland’s relationship with the UK to smuggle immigrants to the UK.
UK officials have previously expressed concern over Ireland’s response to the Ukrainian migrant crisis, as the island nation’s commitment to accepting unlimited potential refugees unconditionally has been criticized as a security risk for the UK.
“Ireland has basically opened the door to anyone in Ukraine who has been troubled by the Common Travel Area,” said an unnamed government boss, who previously hinted at the idea that Albanians are abusing the country’s open-minded stance. keep people and drugs in England.
The country has also been criticized at EU level for not properly protecting its borders: Swedish Democrat MEP Charlie Weimers publicly denounced the Irish Prime Minister (Taosieach) during the European Parliament and the elected representative had a specific purpose. There is an almost universal amnesty in the country for illegal immigrants already in the country.
“Taoiseach Martin, do you think the widespread amnesty for illegal immigrants by EU Member States will reduce or worsen migrant pressure in Europe?” he asked, and later Breitbart told Europe that the Irish government’s actions could have “side effects” on the rest of the EU.
