Polish President comments on his attitude toward Ukrainian refugees
President of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, commented on his attitude toward Ukrainian refugees and their contribution to the Polish economy.
He expressed his views during a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Warsaw, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
Asked by journalists to assess the contribution of Ukrainians to Poland’s economy, Nawrocki responded: “I am very glad that migrants who arrived from Ukraine, Ukrainians living in Poland, have found their home here.”
As Ukrinform reported, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Poland on a visit the previous evening.
Nawrocki also noted that Poland’s support for Ukraine amounted to 4.1% of GDP, or €25 billion.
He further emphasized that Poland takes care of all minorities.
“We have a system of minority protection that allows them to develop. I believe this is proof of Poland’s openness, which since 2022 has taken in more than one million Ukrainians,” the President said.
