British Prime Minister David Cameron has paid a visit in Warsaw to meet his Polish counterpart, Ewa Kopacz and convince her to back his government in making changes to EU regulations prior to a referendum on EU membership in the UK scheduled for 2017.
Poland's Minister for European Affairs Rafał Trzaskowski said that in Prime Minister Kopacz's opinion, "there could be no approval of the discrimination of Poles." He added that Poland will be discussing this "difficult" topic with the Brits.
"Cameron made himself clear that he is not against the free movement of employees, but one has to consider if social benefits should remain at the same level," Trzaskowski added.
"We want Great Britain to stay in the EU. But the interest of Poles, our citizens who live in Great Britain is important," Foreign Minister Grzegorz Schetyna said on Friday. "If every country comes with a shopping list to change European Union policies, that will be the end of the European construction, it will simply implode," Minister Trzaskowski also said.
He will later be meeting German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin.
On Thursday, Cameron met French President Francois Hollande.
