PM Szydło: I don't see possibility to resettle migrants
Prime Minister Beata Szydło told private tv broadcaster Superstacja that although the EU has agreed to solve the migration crisis through relocations, she doesn't see any possibility of accepting migrants in Poland at this moment. The comment comes a day after terrorist attacks in Brussels killed at least 34 people and injured several dozens.
The previous PO-PSL government committed to hosting 6,182 refugees by September 2017 under the EU program of relocating 120,000 asylum-seekers. In 2016, Poland is supposed to resettle no more than 400 refugees from Greece and Italy.
Prime Minister Beata Szydło said earlier that "we honor that [commitment], we respect that, but it doesn't mean that we don't want to start a debate on changing the decisions that have been made."
"The thing is that these decisions [to take in refugees] were not good," Beata Szydło said in January after developments in Cologne, Germany during NYE celebrations.
