06.12.2024The Day Border Guards Faced Reality
Following yesterday's failed border control implementation, officials acknowledged the impossibility of monitoring 645 border crossings effectively. The admission sparked discussions about alternative approaches to migration control.

Weather conditions forced Schiphol to cancel over hundred flights, while the government modified its previously announced airport shrinkage plans, drawing criticism from environmental groups and industry stakeholders alike.

By afternoon, attention shifted to the EU-Mercosur trade agreement's finalization despite agricultural and environmental protests, particularly from France and Poland. The deal's timing coincided with warnings from DNB about excessive wage growth risks.

Evening coverage revealed Dutch shipbuilder Damen's alleged circumvention of Russian sanctions, while reports surfaced about the Netherlands' military unpreparedness for potential conflict scenarios. The justice department's withdrawal from a key witness agreement in the De Vries murder case marked the day's final development.
