lpv:translated text	"This report introduces amendments on the management of the EU’s external borders, stepping up controls on them, notably through the creation of teams of European border guards. It also establishes that Member States are obliged to contribute personnel and material resources. As we know, the Union’s external borders will become an issue of joint responsibility, especially in the Schengen area. The Commission and Parliament are, therefore, justifying the measures proposed in this report with the need created for their integrated and uniform management, ensuring ‘a high level of control and surveillance’. We believe these amendments aim to give the European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation at the External Borders of the Member States of the European Union (Frontex) more power so as to make immigration policy worse through more repressive measures. It should be remembered that European Union policy in this area criminalises immigrants and their families – especially since the Return Directive, or Shame Directive – whilst disguising the fact that they are, in general, either fleeing wars fed by the European Union itself or simply seeking better living conditions. We voted against because we disagree with this repressive, imperialist and federalist vision of the European Union."@en1
