Polish residents criticised EU migration policy

Unable to cope with the flow of refugees entering the EU through the border of Belarus, the European leadership has caused discontent among ordinary citizens of the EU

Thousands of refugees and migrants are gathering on the Turkish side of the border with Greece with the intent to cross into the European Union following the Turkish government’s decision to loosen controls on migrant flows after the death of 33 Turkish soldiers killed in an attack in Idlib, Syria on 27 February.

As Narodnye Novosti reports, the readers of the Polish publication Wirtualna Polska, whose journalists published excerpts of the negotiations in the European Parliament, discussing the fight against immigrants and the situation on the border between Poland and Belarus, expressed the view that the EU had lost any ability to solve the pressing problems.

“It’s already over. It is clear to the naked eye that EU is a toothless old man with few family heirlooms, paintings and furniture, but with no strength to defend himself against foreigners and he is increasingly making out rubbish”, –  said user TER.

 

 

“One smartass sits in this EU. Maybe we should let migrants in quietly. I really beg that our services pretend not to notice anything, let them go to the West. Let’s see how happy those who get them will be”, – Kazik wrote.

Helplessness of the European structures has aroused bitter irony in Poles who offered compassionate Brussels bureaucrats to buy air tickets for refugees on the route: Baghdad-Minsk-Madrid at their own expense.
