The EU has poured millions into Poland’s border enforcement — even as human rights groups accuse Warsaw of illegal pushbacks.

Summary

Poland is facing accusations of widespread human rights abuses at its Belarus border, including violent pushbacks of migrants who are later subjected to torture by Belarusian forces.

Despite these allegations, the EU allocated €52 million to Poland for border enforcement. Prime Minister Donald Tusk has maintained harsh migration policies, refusing to implement the EU Migration Pact requirements.

Rights groups warn that Brussels’ reluctance to confront Poland sets a dangerous precedent, with Oxfam stating: “The EU must stop bankrolling this pushback policy.”

    Germany is doing fine. They are suffering massively from a propaganda campaign that paints migrants & refugees to be the ultimate scapegoat for everything that’s going wrong in their country, but that’s about it.

    Poland isn’t exactly a beacon of humanity, they have a massive problem with racism, hatred of Jews and Muslims specifically, and with anti-LBTQ violence. The pushbacks no matter if in Greece, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, they are brutal and can be deadly.

    It’s an absolute shame for European society that other human beings can be weaponized due to us being so incredibly racist.
