Theresa May visited Poland

British Prime Minister Theresa May visited Poland on Thursday for the first time since she took office. May assured Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydło that she wants and expects Polish migrants living and working in the UK to remain in the county after Brexit. “We value the contribution that Poles have made to the UK. While we are a member there will be no changes. It is important that we see the rights of British people in other EU countries as also being respected. We also want to get the right deal for goods and services," May said at a joint conference with Beata Szydło. In return, Polish Prime Minister stressed that "any arrangement between the European Union and the United Kingdom in the future regarding freedom of movement is likely to be the most important part of the negotiations between both parties,” she said. “It will not be easy. But I think both for Britain and the EU it is very important that this issue – one of the four freedoms of the internal market – is saved.” "It is for us to negotiate to ensure the rights of Polish citizens in the UK and those of UK citizens in the European Union are maintained," she added. Theresa May also said she "condemned the shameful and despicable attacks on Polish communities and others in the wake of the referendum result."
