Polish Prime Minister Morawiecki allowed closing the border with Belarus because of migrants
“We are thinking about steps in the nature of increasingly serious economic sanctions, including the closure of the Polish-Belarusian border by Poland”, – he said.
However, the head of the Polish government hopes that the Belarusian authorities will solve the crisis on the border and send illegals back home.
“We want to give Alexander Lukashenko a chance to take a step back and bring migrants back to their countries of origin”, – added Morawiecki.
Earlier, Poland stopped access to the road border crossing point Kuznica.
We shall remind you that in November, several thousand migrants from the Middle East headed towards the Belarusian-Polish border. They repeatedly tried to break through the cordon, but their attempts were foiled by Polish law enforcers. The European Union and Belarus blame each other for the crisis
