Reinstating Border Controls with Slovakia? Kierwiński's Clear Answer

Mateusz Nowak

- Such decisions are always made based on thorough analyses and information provided by Polish services [...]. As of today, we do not have such information, but every one of our borders is continuously monitored - said Marcin Kierwiński at a press conference with the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Interior of the Czech Republic, when asked whether the reinstatement of temporary controls at the border with Slovakia was planned.

- No, currently, and we will repeat this very firmly and decisively, today the battle for the integrity of the European Union's borders and for the security of Poles is being fought on the eastern border, on the Polish-Belarusian border, and it is there that a significant portion of resources, both of the Border Guard and the army, is deployed to protect that border - he continued.

- Regardless of the emotions that various politicians in Poland want to stir up, let us remember that illegal migration and hybrid warfare using migration are the domain of those in the East, and that is why the main battle for the integrity of our borders is being fought there - he added.
