2018 in brief
Publication metadata
In 2018, Frontex met the responsibilities it was given when it was transformed into the European Border and Coast Guard Agency. We monitor Europe’s frontiers 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We are able to respond quickly and effectively to new developments at the external borders, shoulder-to-shoulder with EU Member States and Schengen Associated Countries. We continue to evolve and find
solutions to emerging challenges. This integrated approach, which brings together the efforts of Frontex and other EU agencies, along with EU institutions and national authorities, is a key factor to address irregular migration and cross-border crime at the external borders. In 2018, Frontex substantially strengthened its activities aimed at returning irregular migrants to their countries of origin. We built up our role in law enforcement as part of border management. We also solidified our cooperation on coast guard functions and launched our network of liaison officers to EU Member States while expanding our cooperation outside the EU. Now the European Border and Coast Guard Agency is moving toward owning or leasing an increasingly larger portion of its equipment, including vehicles, planes and vessels. Frontex, along with the European Fisheries Control Agency (EFCA) and European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA), is at the centre of Europe’s coast guard functions. It is present not only in the Mediterranean Sea, but also in the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea. Together, the three agencies are developing the European cooperation on coast guard functions. In multipurpose operations, they perform tasks that include border surveillance, fisheries control and maritime safety.
