Poland plans to limit aid to unemployed Ukrainians

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk supported the idea of ​​withdrawing financial aid to Ukrainians who do not work and do not pay taxes in Poland. He wrote this on Thursday, January 23, on the X network (formerly Twitter).

We are talking about paying 800 zlotys per month for each child.

“The proposal of Rafal Trzaskowski (Mayor of Warsaw – ed.) to pay only 800+ migrants, including Ukrainians who actually live, work and pay taxes in our country, will be urgently considered by the government. ” he wrote.

Earlier, the mayor of Warsaw and presidential candidate from the ruling Civic Coalition, at a meeting with voters, announced a proposal to limit aid to Ukrainians, because it, in his opinion, “conforms to common sense .”

“The majority of Ukrainians work in Poland, the majority are focused on the fact that our economy is growing and this is what we are talking about, we should not repeat the mistakes of other Western countries – such as Germany and Sweden, where it is profitable to come only for social benefits For us, the most important thing is the fact that everyone who wants to come to us and expects support should strengthen our economy,” said Trzaskowski.

After that, the leader of the parliamentary club of the opposition party Law and Justice Mariusz Blaszczak reported that his political force submitted a project to the Sejm to limit payments for Ukrainians.

According to the UN, approximately one million Ukrainian refugees live in Poland.

Earlier it was reported that about 70% of Ukrainian refugees plan to stay in Europe. Almost half of Ukrainians work in European countries.

Ukrainian refugees answered how satisfied they are with life in the EU
