In Spraakmakers the discussion was about the desire voiced by certain Member States to erect more fences on the EU’s external borders. Van der Woude stressed that border fences are mainly symbolic and that Member States would do better to focus on the EU’s internal borders.

In Vroeg! she talked to Raounak Khaddari about a court case concerning ethnic profiling.
