VOICED: Fighting illegal immigration on the rails

The video discusses the challenges of tracking immigration in Europe, particularly on high-speed rail services. It highlights the operations of the French border police, who intercept thousands of travelers with fake documents annually. Common forgery issues include counterfeit IDs from Romania and Bulgaria, and altered Greek visas. The patrols have been active since 2004, questioning thousands of illegal immigrants, many of whom are returned to Italy. The video also covers the demographics of immigrants, including Moroccans, Afghans, and Iraqis, and the impact of global conflicts on immigration patterns.
