Some 674 million USD will be used to boost enforcement on beaches in northern France, including the deployment of more than 1,000 law enforcement, intelligence, and military personnel. A further 216 million USD will be paid if the new tactics are judged to be successful at stopping migrants. If not, funding will stop after one year.
The deal replaces a previous 3-year funding deal, worth around 647 million USD, which expired earlier this year.
The new agreement is more comprehensive, involving more personnel and expanded surveillance capabilities.
