If you look at how the British especially leveraged a smaller ethnic group to rule over a much larger one such as in India - this was a very sensible and efficient way to force multiply the even smaller amount of Brits that were in India.
So they are seeing that having police that are from the new or second generation immigrants as the same. This is a massive stretch in my opinion and this is a case where the slippery slope is truly important. It is not like these European governments will have a 90%+ non-native police force or or other government agency.
If the police force of a country is roughly mirrored by its ethnic makeup then other things will have to happen to oppress the native ethnic citizens. As it stands the only time the native majority faces oppression is when they say to shut off the stream of immigrants.
I guess this paranoia probably goes way back to how chimpanzee troops will have raids on neighbors every couple years and kill a few chimps. Truly brutal shit. But if it happens like clockwork for chimps then it really isn't paranoia for them.
