79 / 100
Mostly True Brussels

Brussels plans to triple funding for migration and security. Germany spends 68 million euros daily on migration. Frontex recorded 75,000 irregular crossings in early 2026. EU reports a 55% decrease in crossings over two years. The EU proposes 81 billion euros for migration and security from 2028 to 2034.

Infact verdict: Mostly True (79/100).

The claims regarding EU funding and migration statistics are largely supported by the evidence. The European Commission's proposal to triple funding for migration and security is confirmed by multiple sources. However, the claim about Germany's daily spending on migration lacks corroboration, with evidence suggesting lower annual spending. Frontex's report on irregular crossings aligns with the claim, and the reported decrease in crossings is supported by statements from EU officials. Overall, the claims are mostly factual, with some discrepancies in specific figures.

Mostly False Economics
Germany is paying 68 million euros per day for migration-related spending.
