      Some European far-right parties and politicians have sparked a backlash by calling for a police force in their countries resembling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

      ICE, which enforces federal laws governing border control, customs, trade and immigration, has been mired in controversy after its agents killed two U.S. citizens in recent weeks, amid a push by the Trump administration to deport unauthorized immigrants.

      That has not deterred the Bavarian branch of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) and Belgian far-right Vlaams Belang party from proposing police units that resemble ICE, in calls that have stoked an outcry from political opponents.

      In January, the Bavarian arm of the AfD said it would put forward plans in regional parliament for a police unit focused on deporting immigrants who have entered the country illegally, as part of an array of steps to curb unauthorized immigration, according to an internal party document reported by German media.

      “In addition to state-run deportation flights, we are calling for the creation of an asylum, investigation, and deportation unit within the Bavarian police,” the AfD parliamentary group leader Katrin Ebner-Steiner said. The Bavarian Police Union said there is no legal basis for a deportation unit.

      Belgium’s Vlaams Belang plans to submit a proposal for a similar police unit in the coming days. While MP Francesca Van Belleghem rejected the comparison with ICE because, she said, the Belgian unit would remain part of the existing police and not a separate federal agency, the details of the plan suggest otherwise: Specialized officers in every police zone, full units in major cities and border areas, and agents actively hunting unauthorized immigrants.

      “Instead of only registering illegal immigrants when they are caught by chance, the unit would actively search for persons without legal status,” Van Belleghem told POLITICO, adding: “We do not allow our national proposals to be dictated by the international context.”

      In France, meanwhile, far-right firebrand and Reconquête party founder Éric Zemmour did not rule out the idea when asked in a TV interview whether France should have a police force similar to ICE. “It would need to be adapted to France and to French institutions. But we’ll have to be ruthless,” Zemmour told BFMTV.

      Political scientist Laura Jacobs from the University of Antwerp said that some far-right parties are careful and avoid association with Trump as it could hurt their image, but “are indeed referring to [a] similar police force.”

      but we already had the Sturmabteilung in Europe, didn’t work out all that great for Europe. Didn’t work out great for the members of the Sturmabteilung either tbh 😀

      Are these the ones supporting Putin, or the ones supported by trump?

      The plan from the European far-right to copy the American Far-Right was likely planned for a longtime, groups such as the Heritage Foundation are still targetting Europe. This collusion has been well known for a while now.

      That being said, several botched policies including ICE being vile beyond any capacity to justify them (and many have tried) as well as diplomatic crises like with the American threat to Greenland and the EU (where the European Far-Right either had to condemn the Americans or stay silent or even try to justify it and take the popularity hit) has disrupted that timetable.

      Some like the AfD and the Belgian Far-right seem like they are still going to try however.

      I welcome the fact that far-right EU parties are hitching their political and ideological wagon to the failing Trump project

      I mean, we now know for a fact that there exists an international organised far right, so it’s not a surprise that every right wing party wants the same kind of authoritarian repressive and mass surveillance regime.

      The worst parties in Europe are desperate to copy the worst aspects of the worst first first world country.

      Fucking no.

      No thanks. Been voting right (Moderaterna) in four elections so far here in Sweden, 2026 will be the first election the left gets my vote. This shit cannot go on, and the right wing extremist movement needs to be stopped.

      I urge everyone (maybe temporarily) to shift their focus from personal gains to help in stopping this from developing further. May it be higher taxes, or something else – it means nothing if we let the fascists take over.

      Rethink what you vote for, what you have today might be gone in matter of months.

      we had Nyilaskeresztesek (Arrow Cross Party/People) once, we dont need them anymore

      So they want to expand EUs executive power over nation states, by forming federal police?

    14. Dramatic-Border3549 on

      Didn’t they have one until decades ago? It was called Gestapo, I think

    16. Broken_chairs on

      Are these the European far right parties that are *checks notes* being funded by Trump? Shocking…

      Fascist parties want Fascist style police, next news water wet and they are in the epstein files as foreign agents.

      What’s the point? They’re mostly legal asylum seekers or legal migrants. If they want to get rid of them they should change asylum laws (which were created for another era anyway) and find ways to reduce our dependency on cheap labour, not deploy mentally challenged brown shirts to European cities. Goes to show how much of this is just theatre.

      Haha, here in France, the CRS will already beat the shit out of you and haul you away to unknown places if you’re brown, no suspicious activity required. So no need for an extra police force to do that.

      We also have Frontex, which is litteraly ICE but in Europe. An ex director of ICE is now in the french far right party National Rally (patriot for europe) and if them, their party, and the rest of the EU Far right get into power they will totally push people to militarize Frontex.
      They will also turn a blind eye on all the atrocities they might commit (and they already did some in the mediteranean sea) saying this is „for the good of our citizens“…
