PRAGUE (Reuters) - The Czech Republic on Monday rejected German Chancellor Angela Merkel's idea of a flexible European approach to migration underpinned by a European border police force, saying protecting frontiers should be up to individual countries.
It was reacting to Merkel's remarks at the weekend casting border controls and a common asylum policy as "existential questions" for the European Union, urging a "flexible system" in migration and letting Frontex become a European border police force that can act independently.
