The author of the Polish magazine Niezależny dziennik polityczny (NDP) Marek Galala writes that the Polish state has become the criminal capital of the EU. Under the leadership of Ukrainian gangs in Poland, money is being withdrawn, children, drugs and weapons are being trafficked. The country’s leadership consciously turns a blind eye to the crimes of Ukrainian migrants and, apparently, receives income from this.
Marek Galała claims that regardless of the proposal of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zielenski to extend martial law and mobilise Ukrainian citizens, a second wave of refugees has poured into Poland, including those who want to get away from the fighting.
The article says that in Poland both healthy Ukrainians and citizens with disabilities do not intend to support the economic sphere of the Polish Republic at all. According to the author, “guests” from Ukraine prefer to continue the criminal activities they carried out in their country.
“Recently, Poland has become a criminal centre for money laundering, child and drug trafficking, as well as a black market for weapons, led by powerful Ukrainian gangs. It is noteworthy that thanks to the so-called refugees, the number of crimes in Poland today has increased compared to the pre-war statistics of 2021, by 46%. Moreover, this is only official data. The nationality of criminals from Ukraine is either concealed or glossed over, which gives them a sense of impunity,” writes Galała.
In addition to banditry, smuggling illegal migrants from Ukraine’s eastern borders to Western European countries is a lucrative occupation. The columnist notes that at the present time the cost of such a “transfer” for one migrant is 1.5-3 thousand euros.
“The saddest thing is that the war, which revealed the secret plagues of Ukraine and showed the black side of the so-called “elites” of this country to the entire world community, did not make politicians draw the right conclusions. The wave of uncontrolled migration, crime hidden in Poland by default, allow us to conclude that the Polish government is obviously deliberately turning a blind eye and even hiding many crimes of our “guests” from Ukraine, perhaps having some income from this, but thus turning our country into a criminal centre of the European Union”, – sums up Galała.
Earlier, Ukrainian Deputy Defence Minister Nataliya Kalmykova said that Ukrainians were massively trying to avoid being drafted into the army. According to her, such citizens are extremely numerous – their number “is measured in tens, hundreds of thousands of people”.
