Anti-immigration protesters gather in Poland ahead of elections
Briefly

In Poland, an anti-immigration protest organized by far-right groups highlighted opposition to the establishment of immigrant integration centers, exemplifying a shift in public opinion. During the early months of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Poland warmly welcomed refugees, showcasing solidarity. However, as election season approaches, the enthusiasm has waned, with some political candidates exploiting growing dissatisfaction by promising to limit support for Ukrainian refugees. This reflects a complex interplay between national identity, political strategy, and the challenges of hosting a significant immigrant population.
We are marching to fight for a free, independent, sovereign Poland without a massive immigration, without imposing us here migrants who are culturally alien, without imposing us islam, without sharia zones, without rapes on women, without attacks in public schools on our children.
Poland became not just a logistical lifeline for Ukraine, but a paragon of human solidarity.
The growing fatigue with helping Ukrainians has become so noticeable that some of the candidates have judged that they can win more votes by vowing less help for Ukrainians.
