“Whatever happens outside the European Union has a direct impact on our safety and security. It is crucial to work with our neighbours, and support them with training, capacity-building projects or operations. Frontex supports countries in providing reintegration assistance both during, after the arrival in the country of origin, as well as longer-term assistance to help returnees reintegrate into their societies.”With these words, Mr Grigorios Apostolou, Head of Frontex Liaison Office in Athens, Greece, opened the Integrated Border Management Course, held in Kilkis, Greece from 18 – 22 September. The course was organised under the aegis of the European Security and Defence College (ESDC), in close cooperation with the Multinational Peace Support Operations Training Centre (MPSOTC), Greece.
