Polish deputies agreed to build a wall on the border with Belarus

In the Sejm, the government camp around the National Conservative Party Law and Justice has a narrow majority, while the Senate, where the law on the construction of the wall now goes, is controlled by the opposition. His fate in the upper house of parliament is unclear, Reuters reports.

In August, Poland began building a barbed wire fence on the border with Belarus, and a wall equipped with a monitoring system and motion detection devices is set to increase security in the area.

Lithuania and Latvia are in a similar situation as Poland. People from the Middle East or Afghanistan who come to Minsk on tourist visas are trying to cross their borders from Belarus. According to both Warsaw and the European Union, this is a form of hybrid war, in which the regime of the authoritarian Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko seeks to avenge the 27 for the sanctions imposed on him.

In the Polish-Belarusian border, several migrants have already died when Belarusian or Polish border guards pushed them to another country.
