Guest of LCI this Wednesday, September 16, Polish president Karol Nawrocki defended the idea of a “Conservative Europe”. “A Europe that would not repeat errors concerning the green pact, painful for many countries, and which would not make mistakes on migration policy”he advocated. To get out of the “Social crisis” Current, the continent would have every interest, according to him, to focus on these two themes – cornerstone of his last electoral campaign.
Unknown a few months ago, mocked by the elites, Karol Nawrocki thwarted all the forecasts to win the Polish presidential election last June. Former boxer, historian, son of the people, he embodies a hard and rooted right. Faced with Darius Rochebin, he pleaded for a collective awakening: “Europe is a continent made up of nations. We must respect the diversity and inheritance of many countries, because it was the beginning of Europe ”hammered this relative of Giorgia Meloni, before insisting again on the need for “Control illegal immigration that threatens our borders”.
A less flexible migration policy
A wind of protest blows on part of Europe, assaulted by migratory flows which have continued to increase since the early 2000s. In Poland, in particular, the government has decided to take matters into their own hands. This summer, Prime Minister Centrist, Donald Tusk, signed an order temporarily suspending asylum for migrants from Belarus. An unprecedented breach in the history of the asylum policy of the member states of the European Union.
To justify this measure, Warsaw, which is gradually imposed as the figurehead of NATO in Europe to strengthen Eastern FLAN against Moscow, accuses Russia and Belarus of using illegal immigration as a weapon of destabilization. Since 2021, hundreds of illegal immigrants have been trying to illegally cross the border with the Bélarus, pushing the Polish authorities to militarize the area. It regularly happens that soldiers use their weapons to dissuade migrants from crossing the five -meter wall that separates the two countries.
