The protests organized by a further confederation were held in Warsaw, Krakow, Poznan, Vyatslava, Bialistok and other cities of Poland.
Protesters demanded the closure of the border with Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus and Slovakia for illegal immigration.

In the beginning of the march, Bozak demanded the resignation of the government of Donald Tusk, the closure of the border with Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus and Slovakia in illegal immigration and allowed the soldiers to shoot them.
“Without the closure of Poland in illegal immigration, without the beginning of the deportation operation, without refusing political correctness, without the modernization of border guard and forces responsible for monitoring the legality of residence and without labor control, safety will be worsened.”

Tension grows from the immigration policy
As in most EU countries, immigration is one of the most conflicting political problems in Poland. The mobilization of the Confederation occurred shortly after the establishment of controls on the border of Poland with Germany and Lika, which entered into force on July 7.
On the border of Poland-German, checks are checked at 52 points and on the border of Poland-tagging at 13 years old.
In the first round of the presidential election held in May, candidates for the extreme right, including Slavomir Mentzen from the Confederate, and Gregor Brown from the Confederation of the Polish Crown took third and fourth place. Many believed that the successes of both candidates were associated with their harsh position in the field of immigration.
On Friday, Poland, along with five other EU countries, agreed with a series of goals to tighten the rules of the shelter. During the meeting, the German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz admitted that “he is glad that Poland is conducting border control.”
Last year, Poland saw an increase in the use of asylum from a repeating crisis on the eastern border with Belarus, which continues in 2021.
As a result, the Polish parliament adopted a law that temporarily suspended the right to apply for asylum for those who crossed the border with Belarus.
Both Poles and European leaders have long accused of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko of organizing the influx of immigrants to destabilize the EU.

“Everyone, regardless of the color of their skin and their origin, should feel comfortable not only in Poland, but also in Europe.” – said Maria Ksihak from the Institute of International Humanitarian Initiative during the demonstration.
On Saturday morning, the Ministry of the Interior and the Administration published statistics on the number of permits issued for the specific protection of foreigners on the platform X.
“In 2024, we released 40% less permits to protect special foreigners than in 2021. This is the result of the best management of the system, our border business and the most effective processes, ”the Ministry of the Interior says.
“The government is monitoring the responsible and studied immigration policy, taking care of the stability and security of citizens,” he added.
