“There will be people here at their wits’ ends faced with this increasingly violent presence among a certain number of migrants, who it is plain to see are organized in gangs,” Collomb told reporters after spending the night in Calais. Francois Guennoc of the Auberge des Migrants charity told BFM TV that the government still lacked a coherent strategy. “The situation’s untenable,” he told reporters, noting that France registered a record 100,000 asylum requests in 2017.

Collomb said that while Germany dealt with Albanian cases in several days, France took two to three years.
