The actions of the Belarusian ruler Alexander Lukashenko has meanwhile triggered a political crisis in neighboring Poland. President Duda has declared a state of emergency on the border.
Poland’s President Andrzej Duda has declared a state of emergency in the border region with Belarus. He ruled against the illegal entry of many migrants from the eastern neighboring country.
Duda signed a corresponding decree at the government’s request, a spokesman for the presidential administration said in Warsaw on Thursday. “The situation on Poland’s border with Belarus is difficult and dangerous.”
The state of emergency, which is to apply for 30 days, applies from the moment it is published in the official gazette. This should happen on Thursday, said Interior Minister Mariusz Kaminski. A three-kilometer-wide strip along the border is affected. Meetings and major events are then prohibited there. Access to public information is restricted. Media representatives would have to stay outside the border zone, said Kaminski.
The government in Warsaw has accused the Belarusian ruler, Alexander Lukashenko, of bringing refugees from crisis regions to the EU’s external border in an organized manner. Lukashenko announced at the end of May that Minsk would no longer prevent migrants from continuing to travel to the EU – in response to tightened Western sanctions against the former Soviet republic.
