Frontex spokesman Pior Switalski declined to comment earlier in the day on Leggeri offering his resignation and did not respond to a follow-up question on whether it had been approved.
In 2021, the European Parliament published its own report into allegations that Frontex was involved in so-called pushbacks, including in the Aegean Sea between EU member Greece and Turkey. "The Agency also failed to adequately respond to internal observations about certain cases of probable fundamental rights violations in Member States which were raised."
