On the occasion of the "Europäische Wochen", ESI's Gerald Knaus gave a presentation in Passau's city hall in which he talked about Europe's deadly borders – and how to control them humanely. The event was previously promoted by the local newspaper Passauer Neue Presse, which introduced Gerald and ESI as the inventors of the EU-Turkey agreement.
