While you might assume the Polish government isn't a fan of immigration given their rhetoric, Poland actually has a remarkably generous immigration policy. So in this video, we break down what it is, why they need it and how it compares to their rhetoric.

✔️ Legal immigration
❌ Illegal immigration
It's not that hard of a concept to swallow
That's true. The real question is how to differentiate between the two groups and what you do with illegal immigrants once they are at your border.
Easy, legal immigration is immigration accepted by the country you are arriving at. Not EU, or international organizations, which work for wealthiest countries, like Germany. As for immigrants at the border, it's tough but they should be a responsibility of country from which they came, if you cannot secure your borders then you need to accommodate your illegals, and send them home at your own expense.
Immigrants who make riots and terrorist attacks in Western Europe countries arrived there legally too. At least their ancestors did. Those countries accepted them massively, also from Muslim countries. This is the beginning of immigration to Poland, in 10, 20, 30 years Poland will face the same problems as Germany or France face today.
@@maximilianbuschmann7372Back in the time, not that far ago we were shooting to people who illegaly storms our borders. We were defending myselfs by that and be honest, why all this people wants to get throught my country by illegal? If your country needs a „visa” to Poland then get a visa I cant go to Amerika or Galapagos by illegal too so i cant see whats the Big deal. We dont need problems like France, we have our own muslims nation in country which is called Tartars and they are in our culture from centuries. End of euro-socjalism will bring beginning of Kingdom of Poland where Poles are in the power not like today only Polish-speaking świnie
Great replacement on fleek
The wall on Belarusian border has less to do with stopping migrants in general and more with stopping *illegal* entry into the country from that border. Countries like to have their border policies respected instead of being treated as a free transit corridor, which is what Belarus has presented us as to those migrants.
80% of Indians who get residence permit in poland are Muslims, soon Poland going to be named as Polandistan.😎
If you are Poland and building wall on border with Belarus to prevent illegal migration you are bad.
If you are America and you are building wall on border with Mexico to prevent illegal migration you are cool.
È una frontiera tra la ue e altri ma la stessa brukselka non lo capisce ,! Questi figli di È amici di russia😅
To be more specific. Those are weaponized migrants.
A kto rozsiewa takie pomówienia i brednie? Wprawdzie chazarska opozycja liberalna w Polsce latała na granicę przeszkadzać polskim pogranicznikom w osłonie granicy Schengen, ale nasze wojsko stanęło na wysokości zadania. Lewactwo chciało przyjmować do Polski nielegalnych uchodźców wspieranych przez Rosję i Białoruś i również chcieli przyjmować uchodźców relekowanych przez Niemcy za zgoda Brukseli. Polska przyjmuje jedynie Ukraińców, którzy uciekają przed wojną i oni zostają w nas w kraju. Inni to głównie studenci, którzy przyjeżdżają legalnie i zatrzymują się w Polsce na czas określony - czas nauki. Nie jesteśmy dostawcami nielegalnych imigrantów zachodowi Europy. Raczej odwrotnie, to Europa chce zatkać nas swoimi emigrantami, na co polski rząd powiedział stanowcze NIE! W Polsce będzie w tej sprawie referendum w październiku 2023 roku. Bez wsparcia finansowego zachodu na granicy Schengen postawiliśmy kilkaset kilometrów nowoczesnego ogrodzenia, uzbrojonego w monitorig. Codziennie wyłapywanych jest kilkudziesięciu śmiałków, którzy sa zawracani do swoich państw. Z tego co wiem, Europa Zachodnia tego nie czyni z nielegalnymi emigrantami u siebie. Żaden kraj w Europie nie zrobił tak wiele dla uszczelnienia granicy, co Polska. Dodam uszczelnienia granicy, która jest granicą wschodniej flanki całej Unii Europejskiej. Proszę nie wypowiadać się na tematy, które są dla pana białą plamą.
We dont want in PL situation like in France where guests hate the host country. We pay high taxes and require safety first.
As an ex Muslim Syrian who still lives in Syria
I just wanted to say that Poland has the most palanced immigration law ever ,I have a lot of friends who are also atheist , christians or modern Muslims all around Europe and they all say that it's way easier to legally migrate to poland than to migrate to other EU countries, and they say that they feel alot safer in poland than other places in Europe like Berlin London or Paris
it's because Poland accept people who are highly educated , people who came to Europe because they love this European culture and respect it( unlike the illegal migrants )
Poland give them legal roots to enter the countries and before that they must prove that they know , respect and love the polish language, religion, and history
It is because of these laws that encourage legal migration,that polan don't have the same problems as france and Sweden does
I think these kind of laws must be the norm and all Europe must learn from Poland on this issue
Well I am glad you are a ex-muslim bro that's great news at least 😊

@@Sage3356I am intrested on what things your opinion is based? Poland is quite tolerant towards homosexuality. We in our country have never got such a crime in law, Homosexuality have never been illegal. For example in Germany homexuality depenalization was finalized in 1994 and last inprisoned left german prison in our XXI centuary. Its true that we not admire this way of life as a whole society, but it's not mean that there is intolarance, no one attacks gay clubs. Our capital city Warsaw is full of them. In "modern ramadan for liberal" i mean "gay pride" month there is many parades - there are not attacked.

I emigrated to Poland through the Overseas Union of Poles. It is one of the long but reliable options. The process is structured in such a way that you only get the opportunity to emigrate legally if you prove your affection and love for Poland over many years. You will have to pass an exam on your knowledge of history, culture and Catholic faith. In Polish language, of course.
In this way, emigrants are integrated in an elementary way. They are motivated. And they have already invested a lot of effort, so they will try to continue to do good.
From the state's point of view, this is the most competent option.
Congrats, and welcome
"You will have to pass an exam on your knowledge (...) Catholic faith."
Seriously? Jesus Christ... I'm Polish and I am surprised you have to do that. Then again, Catholicism is rather widespread so it would seem rational.
@papertowelthe6th105 I actually thought he was talking BS and had to double check... it's all true. Just unbelievable. Theological questions 95% of all practicing Catholics wouldn't be able to answer to.
Fucking theocracy. At least Muslims don't try to pretend their countries are anything but monoreligious monasteries: it states right at the start of their constitutions that Islam is the state religion and fuck everybody else. On the other hand, let's wait until PiS and the Confederacy win a constitutional majority, that oversight will soon be fixed.
@@papertowelthe6th105 Abroad, at least in the post-Soviet countries, the ideology of Poland is that it is just a fanatical country in terms of religion, i.e. everyone believes (and we were taught so) that on Sunday you will not see people in the streets. Because 100% of the population is in church.
In exams they ask how your family celebrates Catholic holidays and you have to describe absolutely correctly all the rituals, when how many dishes we cook, what we do on the Ascension of the Blessed Virgin Mary or on the Second Day of Easter. My relatives were sure that we would have a huge problem here because we are not religious.
In reality, people here are the same as in other European countries, some are religious, some were taken to church by their grandmother when they were children, and that's the end of it.
@wv13 Polish religiosity, much like it used to be elsewhere in the West (and still is in the Southern US), is almost completely superficial and is mostly an extension of simple nationalism. "I don't believe in Gid myself, but Catholicism is an essential component of being Polish" is a phrase under which most of the right wing populists would sign their names and it has a very long tradition. It's all just for show. That's what makes the incessant attempts at theocratizing the nation all the more revolting-because they serve no purpose except to advance political careers. Every one of the proponents of the abortion law would personally drag the fetus out of their underage daughters' wombs with a hanger in order not to be the talk of town how they raised a hooker.
Polish churches will be vacant in 20 years' time. Many people used to feel towards it a mix of respectful indifference and distance, but the PiS rule turned it into an open hatred.
I don't really see it as inconsistent - they want to accept immigrants on their own rules, but do not say "no" to immigrantion in general. That seems fair
They don't want people of my skin colour.
@@realShikha885 What do you mean of your skin colour? They have opened borders for like, 8 different countries with people with your skin colour
@@realShikha885 Leftist anti Polish nonsense.
They only want immigrants that have high possibility of fitting in the society and that can be useful to Poland.
I agree with you, I don’t see any contradiction here, it makes perfect sense.
If white then yes, if black or brown then no. That is Poland. Their government learned well from the former oppressors.
have been living and working in Poland for almost 6 years and never have any bad experience, its not true that Polish people are anti migrants or racists. Its all about how you conduct yourself and respect the culture of a foreign land rather than imposing your culture.
And about phenotype.
You earn you money by your own labour, and trying not to be a di**head and you have respect of your neighbours, simple like that. ;)
For real just know english or polish if you live in big city, or polish if you live in small town and noone would have any issues. Any squabbles I saw between foreigners and Poles were mostly because of language barrier.
💩
Glad to have you in our country sir. ❤
The thing is that Poland took in so many folks from Ukraine that it seems weird that we get some quotas from eu and somehow these immigrants from UA are not included in the calculation.
Its because its NOT about migrants. And definitely not about migrants (or refugees from Ukraine) that are already in the central/eastern europe.
Its about westerners sending their now-domestic terrorists to us :)
The EU just wants to push the problematic migrants to us. Ukrainians aren't very problematic
Because Ukrainians are white so they don't care how many come in.
@@wrpg9955 russian troll spotted...
The Migration Pact includes a paragraph that allows the European Commission to waive the quotas of countries that are experiencing mass influx of refugees from Ukraine. This paragraph was included mostly with Poland in mind.
Just for the reference. I live in Wrocław, Poland and I would say half of the people I have contact with on daily basis are foreigners - predominantly Ukrainians. I work with Ukrainian, I go to one of 4 supermarkets around me and half of the staff there is Ukrainian as well as are the people shopping there, I go for a walk with my dog and there are walks when I only hear Ukrainian/Russian from people passing by or from kids on nearby playground, I order a ride or food and 80% of drivers/couriers are from Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Belarus, India. In my closest neighborhood I have mixed families and I myself am married to an American. Tell me more about how Poland needs to accept more immigrants 😅
Yup. Im from Wroclaw as well and there are LOTS of Ukrainians here, whenever you go they will be there.
9 from 10 polish women would not date black or arabic men.

If you migrate to Poland be prepared to work as hard as Polish people do.
That’s fair
I didn't vote for PiS, but I'm wondering why people don't seem to distinguish between legal migration and illegal migration. There's a huge difference, which is why there is so much misunderstanding. Even in this video, you're talking about 'rhetoric' - nobody said that we in Poland don't want people to visit or work in our country. It's about how they cross the border and whether we have any legal tools in place in case such migrants start to break the law.
He is an eu rethoric bot, what do you expect? msm repeating parrot...
Of course it there is rhetoric - PiS has traditionally been using anti-Muslim fearmongering rhetoric (as in "they will come and rape our women"), and ironically, Donald Tusk outbid them with the same rhetoric by accusing them of bringing Muslims to Poland. This is why they so abruptly gave on the plans to facilitate visa processes. None of these plans had anything to do with illegal migration - they were about making it easier to process legal visa applications of people wishing to legally travel to Poland...
A polish minister literally said he was only taking in Ukrainians because they had blue eyes and blonde hairm

Letting a burglar into your house when he's trying to break in doesn't mean he's not a burglar.
Actually it does😊 because now it changes his status from "burglar" in to "invited guest"
I hope you're intelligent enough to understand the difference between the two 😉
Poland likes hardworking and smart migrants who are willing to integrate into polish society, by learning language, obeying laws, paying taxes. And it's regardless of their race and religion. By doing that Poland guarantees bright future for itself.
unfortunately not all of the Ukrainians who emigrated are hard working people... But at least half of them
it's what the polish goverment likes, not what we like. WE, the people, don't like having migrants in our country, but we're not totaly against it, beacuse we all know the situation that these people are in and we want them to have a chance of a normal life, with that being said we don't want a multiculture country, but we do want to help those in need

@@Sage3356bruh give it up you are in every comment section
I'm happy for Poland, people who focus on growth and improving their situation will succeed in doing so. People need my company to fill job availabilites.
This video made quite a few erroneous statements, first Poland built that wall on the Belorussian border due to Lukashenko's antics, which brought in a lot of Syrian immigrants on false promises of easy access to the EU via Poland, if anybody should be blamed for that whole fiasco its strictly Lukashenko only.
Second Poland did not "regain its independence from the USSR in 1991" as the video claimed, Poland was never part of the USSR post WWII like say Estonia was, it would be more accurate to say Poland was quasi-independent under the Soviet yoke and Poland regained its full independence in 1989 (which it did so even before the fall of the Berlin Wall) in large part thanks to the Solidarność and then subsequently had its first free elections since pre WWII in 1990.
Third the vast majority of Poles are not against immigration in principle, they are however against immigration of individuals who have no intention of integrating into Polish society and likewise do not wish to see the rise of ethnic ghettos like you see in the UK, France, Germany, Sweden etc.
Hence why they had no problem taking in so many Ukrainians as war refugees or Belorussians political refugees, as they would have very little trouble integrating into Polish society due to the similarities in culture and they were likewise legitimate refugees according to treaties upheld by the UN.
Conversely asylum seekers can be denied entry should they be perceived as a threat to either national security and or public order, which in multiple cases especially those persons coming from north Africa and Syria, has occurred in other nations such as the aforementioned ones above, thus Poland has every right to deny them access based on the 1951 Convention and the 1967 Protocol regardless of what the EU says.
I still think it's funny how Brits will say "Western Europe and the UK" instead of just "Western Europe". Like, I get that y'all aren't in the EU, but there's a pervasive idea that the UK isn't a part of Europe generally that I find odd.
Technically the UK is defined as part of "Northern Europe", maybe that's why?
@@Shantari I think they meant western as opposed to eastern europe

@@Shantari That’s like saying Spain is southern Europe not western - it’s both. Also when it’s in the context of eastern and Western Europe, Britain is western. The difference between north and south politically, historically and culturally is less significant than west and east.

Also not taking any illegal immigrants is the best decision Poland has ever made, Poland is super safe comparing to all these countries who have illegal immigrants like Italy and Germany for example. Every country has right to protect its borders and decide who they want to enter or not, you can can call it being racist but it totally makes sense and thats why Poland is super safe and on the rise
But extremists said it's Islamphobic 😂
@@johne768ell, you lot had them as colonies, yout debt to them is not our debt to them. Westerners have a bit of a mind virus, were they think we are them, we’re not.

Won’t be for long because any foreign population will become dangerous over time and in large numbers
Sure every country has the right to protect its borders, but in the EU every country needs to work on a solution for illegal immigration. If every country in the EU would act like Poland there would be a lot more corpses in the Mediterranean Sea as there already are. Representing Germany and Italy as societal unsafe countries is misleading.
@@maximilianbuschmann7372 not really, you don’t have to push them into the sea, just take them on shore, evaluate if the immigration claim is legitimate, if not deport them. The problem is with western europeans, who refuse legitimate asylum seakers. But legitimate asylum seekers and refugees are a relatively small number.
Hungary also has very open immigration policies, it is one of the easiest EU countries for Chinese nationals to move to and live in.
The keyword is that no one wants "Illegal" immigration. Since 2014 most V4 countries are a broken record saying that there is nothing wrong with immigrants, but people making their way into the country by breaking the law won't be tolerated. It is a perfectly reasonable hill to die on, but it always get misrepresented as general bigotry.

Generally a good report, but:
1. While 10 of the countries listed are (off the top of my head) Muslim majority, 8 aren't.
2. It can't be understated how many Ukrainians Poland has taken in, not just since last year, but since 2014. The 5 biggest cities all have 20% +/- Ukrainian minorities. I don't know how this allocation mechanism works, but I can see why Poland wouldn't want to be allocated additional immigrants on top of the large numbers they already take.
Edit: I originally said 10 were non-Muslim majority, but I was mistaken. And Nigeria is pretty evenly split too.
As for the demographics in Poland, most of the figures available are from mid 2022; from my own observation, there's still a considerable number of Ukrainians in Polish cities like Wrocław and Kraków.
Mass immigration is never a good idea but skilled immigration is required although the voter base of the current party will think differently even with legal immigration, lets be real here would they know the difference between a brown person from India or latin america and a middle eastern guy? For them they are all the same. Ukraine immigrants say that they will return home now but if the war goes on for too long they will just settle in their host countries and move on with their lives. That will also affect some people no matter how close you are culturally with another ethnic group it still causes tension.
They only accepted them because they were white. No other reason. I remember comparing the situation of accepting Ukranians, to when they were against any and all brown folks because of hatred or random conspiracy theories.
I only count 7 non-muslim majority countries on the list. Ukraine, Armenia, Georgia, India, Thailand, Vietnam, and Moldova. Which other 3 countries are you counting? Nigeria is quite evenly split between Muslims and Christians, however Muslims are slightly above 50% with Christians being about 43%.

However, I agree with you, Western Europe is fu**ed up and lost and I prefer Poland over Western Europe.
@@hellboy0189 I don’t agree, Poland is better.
People often forget several facts when discussing Poland:
1) Poland was often very metropolitan and welcoming of foreigners throughout its history, having contact with both the French aristocracy and Russian boyars.
2) Poland has also historically been very tolerant and because of that had one of the largest Jewish populations of Europe, because other "better" Western nations would often persecute them, so many aspects of Polish culture can be found in Ashkenazi Jewish culture. This is also another reason why the Holocaust death camps were built in Poland, nearest to big populations, and not other places like Hungary.
3) Most young people extremely dislike this modern right PiS party and some of their Euroskeptic tones... but let's not forget that Poland took most of the Ukrainian refugees during the Crimean crisis in 2014... yet Western nations didn't complain that Poland took too much until Poland was asked to take Syrians shortly later... while others didn't take any Ukrainians.
Now, tell me, which country is again taking care of Ukrainians the most right now, again?
Don't forget to add that Poland (the 1st Rzeczpospolita) was more or less the foundation of the modern idea of religious tolerance. I think even Thomas Jefferson, who pushed for separation of church & state in the USA has cited the Warsaw conference as an inspiration. It was really a pity in my opinion, that the Rzeczpospolita was eventually partitioned by imperialism forces, which is not only a loss for Poland, but the world, as it's a loss to imperialism for commonwealth-ism. Which I believe if the latter have been the mainstream, humanity can have avoided much more tragedies.
One unusual opinion on the sentiment of the likes of the PiS, and the Euroscepticism in modern Poland politics in general. I am not Polish, don't really even speak or understand Polish (am Chinese but live in America currently). But you can say that I'm somewhat involved in the Polish communities here. I'm a great fan of Polish food, drinks, music, history, etc. And I think the Polish people are more or less, openly or subtly, extremely proud of that. But unfortunately from my experience they are mostly only a 'secret' of the Polish communities themselves. While on the other hand, the 'modern' culture of other nations, particularly Western European & American, along with others, are increasingly popular among Polish, especially the younger ones. And I think not only have I met Polish people, especially the younger ones, who claims to like non Polish stuff better, many of them claim that many if not most of their Polish peers are like that. Also, for example, while the Polish people are increasingly well educated in English, as well as other popular 'international' languages (I know many Polish ppl nowadays are quite good in German, Spanish, French, etc.), I don't see Polish as a remotely popular choice for foreign language to learn outside of Poland, at least from my experience. And yes while I might be a little 'too sensitive' on this, I wouldn't be surprised, and might even relate a little bit, given what I've seen, if there are people (particularly the more 'nationalistic' or 'patriotic' ones) in Poland who might be a little concerned about the future of the Polish culture & heritage, and it probably is those sentiments that give the likes of the PiS party a big market in modern day Polish politics. At least it could be a significant contributing factor in my mind.
Jeśli chodzi o sympatie polityczne to mów w swoim imieniu a nie w imieniu młodych ludzi.
same in Ukraine, years of Soviet isolation made us super excited about anything and anyone foreign... Unless it's ru*sia
Syrians? it's not even clear who they were, nobody was asking or checking them when they were violating all of those borders on a way to Germany. Also it was estimated that about 40 000 kids "disappeared" in the meantime, it was a complete mess.
Ukrainians are white. Of course Poland is happy to take them.

What don’t you understand??? Poland is ok with legal immigrants that they accept on their own terms. They don’t want illegal immigrants dumped on their doorstep without asking if they want them.
There is a big diference between legal and illegal imigration. Legal imigrants by coming through imigration process show that they can respect your country laws and culture, while illigal immigrants just doesn't care.
yes
And when you point out the difference, you get called "Bigot" & "Racist" & "Nazi"
And by international law Refugees are considered legal by default until proven otherwise.
Its dreadful that lot of other country make it that Legal immigration (almost) impossible or at least very (VERY) difficult
One thing about illegal immigration is it’s not just people crossing the border illegally. In the US most illegal immigrants are people who came here legally and just overstayed their visas because they started building a life here. The US legal immigration system is just broken so I am sympathetic to such people. Forcing people to leave so they can come back later is just inefficient.
Poland has milenia old policies if accepting migrants whether they were looking for asylum(Jews) or economic (Germans in freshly founded cities), or even connected to major migratory trends(Tatars). They work in the past maybe they still are valid

- At various points in this video, we say that these new immigration plans came out 'last week'. This isn't correct: these plans actually came out on June 20th, but we wrote this video a while ago.
- At 4:37, we say Poland 'regained its independence from the USSR'. Obviously, Poland wasn't a member of the Soviet Union; what we meant to communicate here is that Poland moved away from the 'Eastern' or 'Soviet' bloc towards Western Europe and the EU in the 90s.
Apologies for the errors, and hope you nonetheless enjoyed the video!
👍
as a Pole, "regained its independence from the USSR'." is perfectly adequate term imho
That’s not an error, we had USSR troops stationed in Poland, no legitimate elections as the opposition was imprisoned or threatened, and we couldn’t make any significant decision without calling Moscow. While on paper it was a satellite state, in practice that was occupation, or more adequately ‘owning’ Poland.

You should pin this
I have been in Poland for more than a year.
I can say that Poland only allow in legal migrants, regardless of religion.
I met muslims in there, but they were very decent people with high education or studying at university while working full time.
So, basically Poland is taking the best from eastern europeans, central asian and muslim countries.
Because of that safety in Poland is very high and there are no issues with migrants, leading to more integration and acceptance of people towards migrants.
The only immigrants that Poland is taking as refugees are from Ukraine as they are easy to integrate and is not taking refugees from Africa or Middle East as Poland doesn’t want to have the same kind of issues France has.

Here's the thing, for the longest time we were a nation that was of multiple cultures, but we also always needed that the people who immigrate into our country respect our culture and law. That's how I see it at least.
There is one thing that seems to be overlooked in the video. There is big difference between illegal migration (that kind that was blocked by the wall on border with Belarus) and legal one (all the people that got the residence permit). Law and Justice opposes the illegal one while being pretty much silent about legal immigration policies.
Exactly.

Anyway this really is important difference. We in Czechia have quite similar view on that.
They literally support legal immigration the whole party they just hate illegal immigration like what’s going on in France or Italy
Except they didn't. They said that seeking asylum is legal immigration.
Migrating to a country with nothing but the clothes on your back is far more consistent with asylum then filling out Byzantine paperwork and waiting patiently inside the country you are seeking asylum from.
@@JamesR1986Its more consistent with a horrific journey through areas with organised crime running it. You try travelling those routes with anything valuable.
I am a Qazaq from Qazaqstan, living in Poland since April 2023, I'm 32 and have quite an experience living, visiting many countries.
I must say that I'm in love with Poland, it's incredible, beautiful, wonderful country.
I live in Warsaw, the city is so good, as a father of 3 year old kid, I can confirm that it's one of the most comfortable cities I've ever been to (I've been to 87 to be precise).
Warsaw is so green, has very good public transport, offers you everything a modern city should: restaurants, schools, kindergartens, entertainment, parks, nightlife, etc.
I am a relocated specialist of an American company, so I know the taxation, salaries, etc.
I was shocked at first how Warsaw is affordable, even amidst the high inflation everyone is talking about, everything here is much cheaper than in Almaty (Qazaqstan), except for services simply because the labor is much more appreciated than in Kazakhstan.
In comparison with Western Europe, Warsaw is clean, way much safer, much more affordable.
Of course, the wages are lower than there, but the costs of living for the standard of living is quite good. You can afford living here and not surviving like in US, for example, where you work all the time.
On top of that all, Poles are kind and lovely people, who love their country and treat it darely.
I am really happy for the opportunity the life gave me of living here, and so proud of what Poland has achieved since late 1980s. It's truly remarkable.
As a Pole I'm very happy you like it here! Must say I'm not suprised, I'v met only few Quazaqs but always got along from the start like there was some unspoken mutual understanding of things. I wish to travel across Kazachstan - its so huge and different, would love to get to know the culture deeper. Best regards!
@@CryptoC4T the first thing my older colleagues say when they learn I'm from Qazaqstan is the stories about their grand parents who were forced to move or deported to our country back in 1930-1950s, and how Qazaqs helped them along the way to survive in those terrible conditions. So, I guess that connection between our nations is there 🤜🤛🫶
My country, Germany, should do the same. We have the same demographic issues and are in need of skilled workers from abroad. Unfortunately there seems to be little will from the people to make that a reality, as a lot of people see immigration as a bad thing, especially after the French riots. A lot of anti immigration politicians also fail to differentiate between skilled migrants, who are way less likely to cause any trouble like the French riots, than poor migrants that come here to seek asylum.
Actually the German parliament has just approved a new visa called Chancenkarte, or the opportunity card.
@@Adam-nw1vy Oh I didnt hear about that to be honest, but its very good. I still think there are lots of hurdles in the way for skilled immigrants, like bureaucracy, especially when it comes to getting their education certificates recognized. And in Germany I feel like there is lots of resistance in general towards even high skill immigration, which is a problem.
How so? Germany is vocal that their population is increasing, so that sounds like you don't need immigrants
You must do something these people are outbreeding you and changing the demographics you will be minorities in your own nation in future
I can speak from experience, I was born and grew up in Germany but my family is from Persia.
My aunt has learned German, had found a possible home and nearly had a job pre-arriving but yet, she didn‘t get accepted.
My family in Persia sometimes think that the Mediterranean route would be the better option and that‘s just insane.
It shows that the legal migration is harder than the illegal one which shouldn‘t be that way.
Obviously the Mediterranean route is very dangerous but the point stays the same.
I just hope the Chancenkarte is a step into the right direction and isn‘t just another failed idea

People are talking about immigrants like an homogenous group. Countries like to have educated people, and it depends on a company whether it wants cheap, uneducated labor or qualified professionals. From point of view of citizens, it is never a good idea to take in too many immigrants from a different culture.
That is why all countries I'm aware of differentiate between legal and illegal migration. Claiming to be a refugee doesn't make an illegal migrant a legal one btw.
@@jayfraxtea Yes and... well, I am thinking how some groups want to change a status of illegals (e.g. those who pretended to be refugees) to legals. Or are not strict enough in terms of immigration criteria.
What do you even mean by culture? Polish people cant even agree on what it means to be polish.
@@Besthinktwice, the "right" to claim asylum where the applicant wants is a myth of the far-left. Applicants only can apply in the first (persecution-)safe country they enter, afterwards they are migrating illegaly and can be deported to previous countries without processing their asylum request. Within the EU this is regulated with the Dublin-system. The far-left opinionists may call this "illegal push-back" but the European courts have confirmed these proceedings.
Most asylum applications don't result in a refugee status so most "refugees" (asylum seekers) are no refugees indeed. Far-left opionists hate this fact and try to blend the wording to fool us.
Sure, but I think the crux of the political disagreement centers around what is 'too much'. If you divide the numbers we've seen over the last decades equally over the EU, it's very managable, in my opinion.
*Difference here is these Ukrainians wanted to come here, while the Syrians wanted to go to Germany or elsewere.*
*Also Poland is obliged to take refugees from Ukraine cause it's a first bordering country. It doesn't have the obligation to take Syrians.*
But since you want mass immigration, it seems like you should take the Syrians anyway.

If promoting Nazism isn't free speech in Europe then burning that ""book"" shouldn't be either. Its the same thing but directed at different people.

I live in Poland for multiple years. I am a foreigner, so a migrant, a regular one with one of those Permits (Karta Pobytu) you talked about 6:10 circa, you can count me in those numbers you have been talking about.
Despite me not liking PiS and disliking them completely (add to the list all of the right leaning parties here in Poland, from PO to former Konfederacja), you have to be extremely blind not to have spotted that Poland (and not just the big cities, literally everywhere) over the last 10 years got millions of migrants.
And let's call myself as Migrant, let's call all of us as Migrants, not Expats. Fuck that terminology of Rich Kids.
Refugees from Belarus due to the 2020 rigged elections, from Ukraine for ages, but also highly skilled workers and employees from everywhere.
And even regular workers in general.
The whole baffling idea to me, to hear always Poland dubbed as "Racist, fascist" all of the times, as a foreigner and real anti-fascist, it makes me crazy.
A ton of people have a complete, distorted, idea of what is actually ongoing here around tutaj w Polsce.
I know that Polish political figures always give a weird image of everything and they are full of propaganda leaning towards their rhetoric, but Jesus Christ and even Allah Buddha and all of the gods, if I had a Grosze for every single Western European exaggeration about Poland over the last 10 years, I would be having a huge fucking Castle somewhere in Poland (but not the Notecka Forest's one)
The only fact Poland wants to accept people arriving here with a LEGAL scheme, and not because of some imposed quota, or because of a result of a Hybrid Warfare (like the one Belarus provoked in 2021 by RANDOMLY OPENING FREE VISA ROUTES to Middle Eastern people and pushing those forcibly to the border), is NOT mind blowing. It's the ABSOLUTE NORMALITY as it should be EVERYWHERE.
It's not about being Left or Right leaning in the political spectrum, it's about LEGALITY. And Poland has the LEGAL right to enforce its LAWS.
And Poland, yes, now wants to bring in more people, from those 18 countries, LEGALLY (like it always did according to its laws), through bilateral agreements.
Like every mature democracy should do.
EU, instead, has a lot to think and rethink about how to protect the External Borders of the Union and how to provide Legal Access to the outside citizens towards the Union, making it clear once and for all what are the rules.
Then you can call it "Fortress Europe", fine, but at least let's be serious about this topic, and not always being compromising and worse, being fucking hypocrite.
While people meanwhile, dies in the process to get, either in the Mediterranean, or freezing alive because of Lukashenko.
Otherwise well, you can always get stupid, compromising solutions like the Dublin agreements which go literally nowhere, and keep on searching for no common, European solution.
If you just think that an "Open Europe" would work forever, even with illegal systems, I am sorry, but you are just a Dreamer.

Countries in the East of Europe have long suffered from ignorance and being forgotten, despite their historical role in shaping European history. To be fair, Eastern Europeans have a fascinating way of how they deal with migrants. They do welcome migrants, although these migrants will be checked constantly. Some migrant groups are favoured over the others, though, such as Vietnamese, Korean and Ukrainian migrants; while Middle Easterns and North Africans are constantly viewed with suspicion, for examples.
Still their dissimilar mentality is something the West and North of Europe needs to emphasise. It's necessary for the histories, politics, economics and societies of countries from the East of Europe to be studied and understood.
"while Middle Easterns and North Africans are constantly viewed with suspicion, for examples."
Well, they did try to enslave us for like...idk, 500 years.
And with the rise in salafism in recent decades, not that much has changed in their colonialist attitude.
Non of this means a thing if eastern Europeans are globally wide in all several number of countries doing the same activities as other migrants.
That pure Eastern European history doesn´t matter in this today world unless its for political traditional old racist and pure ethnicity views(no matter the country), Globalization will change demographics and shape new ways how people contact one another as traveling becomes more convenient over the next decades.
Nobody is exempt from this after 20 years or so.
Younger generations will push out that boundaries and determine their own outcome over some racist boomer and their old traditional views based on history.
We can talk about these historic points of views all we like, but that is simply shelved for historic records not today´s or tomorrows political or social reality.
They believe in nazism
It's simple, eastern Europeans like legal immigrants that contribute to society which south east asians do.
Immigrants from the middle east and north Africa are mostly illegals and they do not contribute to society. Ask Germany, France and Sweden which immigrant group behaves better in their country.
@@Siranoxz Eastern European history is important especially for the EU as it partially informs why certain countries act the way they do. Coming to an understanding that Poland has went through a drastically different medieval, early modern period and 20th century than France for example is something that informs why they are a lot more wary about Russia than Western European countries for example. Cultural differences are often informed by history too, which is something that the young ppl are a part of.
Most of these Islamic countries listed are either wealthy countries where a huge chunk of people don't take religion that seriously or are secular countries where religion also isn't as important.
Many of the listed ones are also post USSR countries where most people know Russian, which would make it easier for them to learn Polish as it's another Slavic language. It also weakens Russia as it makes the skilled people there more likely to go to Poland instead of Russia.
This is not true of the countries in the Arabian Peninsula and Pakistan. The governments there have pretty intentionally popularized a more fundamentalist sect of Islam and Pakistan an outright radical one. Obviously there probably still is a large portion of not so religious people and or atheists, but they definitely have to hide it in those countries. Countries like Turkey have a rather liberal sect of Islam that is akin to Christianity in most western countries, so very liberalized. Hopefully other muslim countries start becoming more liberal like they did post ww2, but looking at the dictatorships running them now, it's not likely.
The Russian point is just like what i thinking. I thing the most severe form of "punishment" for Russia is to let their main economic engine m, skilled/educated people, to immigrate to Poland. Poland will get economic boost while Russia will fall into oblivion.

There is a difference between legal immigrants and illegal ones. Legal immigrants in most cases want to work, integrate and respect cultural values, illegal immigrants in most cases just want to abuse social benefits, don't want to work legally, and they commit crime. In Czechia we have huge Vietnamese community and they are wonderful people, never met a bad Vietnamese person in my life. But if you look at Sweden, Belgium, Netherlands, France etc. they accept the type of immigrants no one should ever accept, and it shows in their crime statistics.
Legal immigration still in long term leads to the country becoming unrecognisable.
The difference between legal and illegal migrants is not their motivation but their qualification. Illegal migrants simply don't qualify since they don't provide value for the society they want to join. Falsely claiming asylum doesn't replace missing qualification.

As a Pole i can say that immigrants don't bother me, but illegegal immigrants definitively would.
As a Pole, I can say that I support migration to Poland, BUT I absolutely dont agree with illegal immigration. For the last 10 years, Poland has moved from a country of emigrants to country of immigrants. Walking along the streets of larger cities, such as Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw, you can often hear languages from around the world, more often than Polish. According to data in 2011, pension contributions were paid by 80,000 immigrants, if we add students, people working on other contracts, children of immigrants, or people who worked illegally, there were about 200,000 immigrants. In 2021, the number of immigrants who paid pension contributions increased to 1.1 million - a huge increase, over 1100%. Currently, 4-5 million immigrants live in Poland. Despite the ever-increasing number of immigrants arriving in Poland, crime continues to fall year by year. All this shows that immigrants are not the problem, but migration policy. Immigrants arriving in Germany or France expect only social benefits. Immigrants coming to Poland want to study, work, earn money, start families and so on. None of my family or friends have a problem with immigrants in Poland, if anyone wants to find their place on earth here, we invite you! But we disagree with illegal immigration... In addition, Poland is currently in a situation where it is forced to attract as many immigrants as possible. At the moment, the demographic dependency ratio in Poland is 39%, forecasts say an increase to 44% in 2032, unless another 2.75 million immigrants come to Poland. Is it doable? Absolutely yes. Poland has one of the lowest fertility rates in Europe. I believe that even a sudden improvement in the world's financial situation and security (e.g. the war in Ukraine) will not significantly improve this trend. Poles simply start to take care of themselves, focus on development and career. I'm 20 myself and I'm not thinking about having a child, will I decide when I'm 30? I don't know, I doubt... That is why demography in Poland is currently the biggest problem, the Polish economy is developing dynamically, but without hands to work, this growth will sooner or later end. Many of my friends run companies and it is very hard to find an employee, even offering an attractive salary. Let's hope that countries such as France, Germany and Sweden will finally take up migration policy and start taking care of their own good... After all, we are Europeans and we should face everything together.
This point of veiw from “westerners“ that “easterners“ dont like migration because they dont like migrants is flawed, its logical fallacy. Eastern countries like Poland and Czech Republic are viewed as anti imigration, yet they have large ammout of imigrants in their countries, from Romania, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Hungary, Vietnam.. ..as many before me pointed out, the difference is, they are here legaly, opened businesses and contribute to society.

Germany has been able to integrate their Muslim population relatively well, so has Finland, Sweden, New Zealand and Portugal. In those countries Integration has been more successful than not by a good amount, but since the instances of non integration is most newsworthy, it is not in the peripheral. I think sometimes people forget that governments are also responsible for integrating new populations. The US is also a shining example, being able to essentially make their muslims essentially liberal muslims, which many in more fundamentalist muslim countries would call haram, but which should be an inevitable change when integrating into western society. Integration is arguably a larger responsibility of the governments accepting them rather than vice versa, especially when speaking of mass immigration.

GDP consists primarily of the quality of employees and labor productivity. Large immigration always causes friction between people who completely cut themselves off from culture, ways of moving away from and values. The Vietnamese are a really hardworking community in Poland and there is no problem with them. Now we have a large immigration from Asia to Uber Eeats and Glovo. As typical western fast-growing sturtaps and innovative companies, they are based on the exploration of poor people from the 3rd world. The second group consists of people who came to Poland to work in a shared services center as a global bank or corporation. These are, of course, low-cost centers, workers from Western countries are obviously too good since profit is all that matters. The 2nd group is bringing in employees by an office corporation, employees from India, etc. to cheap centers in Poland. If the standard of living in Poland increases, the corporation will have to find another stable and reliable country with low wages. Now they are trying to find cheap workers in Asia and move them to Poland, if that is not enough, they will move abroad. Part 3 is migration from Ukraine, which has been at war since 2014. After the 2022 attack, they really were refugee children, women, so the whole community came together to help them (many people give shelters free sleepovers, etc.). not like in Belarus where Western European anarchist and leftist forces that help smuggle immigrants to Belarus from all over Africa and Asia. the Belarusian regime robs them of their life savings through Western foundations and organizations, etc. It's just that when someone invites you home, you enter through the door, not the window. If you are a doctor, nurse or just a bricklayer, carpenter, you can find an employment agency that will help you find a job and rent an apartment to go through the border crossing point. Poland is also opposed to any concentration camps, even if Germany and France believe that they provided security to those who are locked up there. It is a matter of cultural differences in the way of understanding human rights, and above all in the approach to freedom. In Western Europe, man is a cog shaped according to ideology, etc. In Poland, it seems unacceptable. Immigrants are not animals or things, and there is no reason to bring them to Poland by force and then imprison them if they want to go to Germany.
Maybe the Poles looked at the rest of Europe and said “NO THANKS”.
But this video showed that they are going to do the same as the rest of Europe.
@@tomorrowneverdies567 Nope, video is misleading. Number of work permits doesn't mean that it is number of imigrants in Poland.

@@marpl6063 ok but Poland and Germany did not start importing these immigrants at the same time. Germany started in the 1960s, Poland around 2010.

The number of such immigrants in Poland is increasing. Google it. If you trust that PiS will stop said immigration to Poland, I am afraid you will be bitterly disappointed. I hope I am wrong.
Sweden, France, the Netherlands and Germany are all doing pretty well, it´s countries like Poland and Hungary that actually aren´t so great.
The problems that exist in France, are because the Gaullist French government in the 60s actually deliberately segregated the immigrants from the Magreb. They deliberately put them in suburbs away from their middle class voters. And also, it´s far from a disaster even then, most French cities are pretty peaceful, not everywhere is like the rough suburbs of Paris or Marseille and you can find plenty of all White French towns that are run down and crime ridden. It´s as if socially excluding people causes more crime.
Also, it´s worth noting that crime generally throughout the West has dropped since the 1960s.The point in France is that they were deliberately excluded. And actually the situation isn´t as bad as people like you think. If you go to any French university or company, you will find people of different ethnic origins working there.
The same in the Netherlands and Germany, they are very diverse countries and lots of people are successfully working in lots of different areas.
It´s this black and white view that´s so ridiculous, a) yes there are problems but b) it doesn´t mean it´s a constant war out there. C) A lot of the problems were actually intentionally caused by the French government.

Poland simply doesn't want illegal and social migrants and immigrants... But for those who wanna work and live according to local rules we are very open and tolerant
Poland like LEGAL migrants !! If they're hard working people and they respect our culture and law Welcome to Poland
An illegal immigrant at the very beginning breaks the law of the country he is going to, and does not bear any consequences for it. This often causes that he has no respect for the law and the country he came to. Poland and Poles accept legal immigration, where the immigrant meets all the requirements set by the Polish government, which proves that he has respect for Poland and Polish law.
There's no study from 2014 showing 90% interest in emigration among young Poles. The number at that time was below 35%.
We just recognize the difference between legal and illegal migration...
This is such a weird comment because legal immigration is just whatever you say is legal. So, Poland recognize that when they enact a law against immigration, they enact a law against immigration? Incredible
@@Billiamwoods The polish government is against imigration of people who get to Europe illegaly. And creating an act of law which force Poland to receive such immigrants is that what is not accepted. People who use a legal way created by polish government are welcome in our country.
You make us literally fascists in the west, Poland has been the most tolerant country in Europe for hundreds of years. When dissenters and Jews were murdered in the Middle Ages, Poland already had freedom. They could believe what they wanted and use whatever language they wanted. In 15, 16, when there were pogroms of Protestants in Europe, people of different religions lived in Poland and everyone lived in peace. Such an image of intolerant Poland appeared by the Russians and Germans who persecuted other religions and cultures on Polish lands and slandered Poles during the years of occupation.
If they accept immigrant like what we did or France, Britain, Germany, then idk what the future of Europe will be but negative 🤷♂️
There is countries that accept immigrants for economic reasons. Especially knowing most EU nations have huge problems with their low population.
What would change if nobody accepted immigration from outside of Europe? The native populations would still fall, because people do not make at least 2.1 children. Immigration is relatively irrelevant.

The reason for immigration is very simple. Conservative gov of Law and Justice party is very reliable, fixed economy, budget, increased wages, eradicated corruption at the national level, so the people don't want to leave, the people now want to come. Maybe it's not the best place to live in the World, but it's safe, stable, and you can have relatively good life.
From 0:51 I shouted "Look, I can see my house from here!"
Poland has at least a dozen of Metro Areas exceeding 0.5M, and still low urbanization rate. Plenty of space to grow
For us Poles you can be pink with green stars and profess even Martianism, we don't care what you look like or what you believe in. If you want to live in Poland, come to us legally, work, study, pay taxes, respect our laws and customs and do not try to arrange our world in your own way. You are the one who has to adapt to us, not we to you. You are a newcomer and you are supposed to integrate. Poland does not need ghettos of illegal immigrants and nationalist communities. If you live in Poland, you are part of this society, not a Martian. Poland does not need illegal immigrants. There are legal border crossings for crossing borders and we will decide whether we let you in or not. According to international law, we send illegal immigrants back to the country from which they tried to cross our border.
Poland is being perfectly consistent: they want educated people who will probably integrate in a few years, learn the language and find a regular jobs.
Most so-called asylum seekers (with exceptions) are really economic migrants who look for a better life. Unfortunately they are often uneducated and unwilling to integrate.
It's worse then that afaik. Imagine you come from a tribe or clan based society. The values you were thought at home are adapted to the lifestyle of a semi-nomadic herder, living in a semi-feudal oligarchy, but some ppl have smartphones they imported from weird aliens. You got one too, cause they're not *that* hard to get, and they were intentionally made to be as simple to use as possible. If that is your life until your mid 20s, and you move to the West seeking an adventure and a better tomorrow. 1) I resect that. It's basically a Campbelian hero's journey you're undertaking. Slay a dragon, get the girl, more power to you. 2) Unless your IQ is (significantly) above average, it's not that you won't want to integrate when you're there. It's that you won't be able to. And you're probably not that high IQ because you've had no formal education (which hurts a bit), and were probably at least kinda underfed when a fetus/child (which hurts a lot).
.
Western Europe's problem is not that it has a bad immigration policy. It's that it doesn't have one at all. And on top of that the French are getting their comeuppance for Algeria, because they thought that if they forgot about the past, others would too. And so the Algerians did pretend to forget, as long as the money was good; as long as the incentive was there to pretend. As soon as it spotted, they suddenly remembered and now everyone is making a Pikachu face. And yeah, they do get generous welfare all things considered. But that still makes them a permanent lower class in a country with ~20% youth unemployment. No virile young man is gonna accept a reality with no serious chances of climbing the social hierarchy within the foreseeable future. Every hormone in his body is telling him to acquire status so he can reproduce ffs. And acquire he shall, one way or another.

People from Pakistan and Bangladesh would not integrate as these countries are very fundamentaly Muslim. There is a chance with former Soviet republics like Kazachstan or Uzbekistan, as their Islam is very light dur to years of enforcing communist atheism, but it's still risky.
I don't like how they blame libertarians' or leftists for Immigrants. My partner and polish family were shocked when I said in Ireland the most anti immigrant mainstream party are democratic socialists and how our Christian conservatives right wing parties are the most pro immigrant.
As a Pole, let me explain to you the approach of the vast majority of us. First of all, almost no one except far-left radicals wants uncontrolled, illegal immigration in our country, for a simple reason: We don't want any criminals, illiterates, or veterans of wars, i.e. people who would makes any problems. Secondly, it is considered extremely shameful for young men to flee conflict regions and leave women, children and the elderly behind. During the World War II, many Poles found refuge in former British colonies like Iran or Kenya, but old people, children and women stayed there, and men were drafted into the army and thrown to the front to fight against the Nazis. That is why for example Syrians or Afghans who left their families in war-torn countries and went to Europe themselves are perceived badly by Poles.
Generally, if someone is smart, intelligent, hard-working, wants to pay taxes here, adapts to our culture and learns the language, then he or she is completely accepted.
But I would also mention two other factors, that have to do with immigration reluctance. The first is an aversion to cultures that assimilate very poorly and try to impose their laws or religion - Muslims might be a great example here. The second is the reluctance to accept too many men. Not many of you probably know, but in the last census, we have a huge surplus of single men over single women, which is 1.1 million (we have 5,3 mln single men and 4,2 mln single women in reproductive age). This is mainly due to the fact that for almost 20 years of presence in the EU, Polish women were more willing to associate with citizens of the wealthier countries of Western Europe. In the provinces, in small and medium-sized towns, you will find mainly single men who do not want even more competition and who in turn support far right or right-wing parties.
Maybe we should not encourage illegal emigration through forests in the dark, through see on pirate boats organised by mafia; but start support normal emigration where you apply to be specific citizen by crossing UE border at border crossing point.
Do not encourge people for illigle activities, but encourge that to simply apply for visa at appropriate place!
Yeah but that's hard work. You need to do come up with a system, write policies and apply them as laws, set up bodies that will evaluate whether or not the policies are working as intended, correct them when needed, do some kind of checks on what the applicants claim in their forms... "Open border, profit" sounds a lot easier AND it gives you virtue points among your electoral base who won't get hit by the worst issues produced by such an approach. At least not before the next election cycle...
.
This shit is legit why I sometimes think democracy is overrated...
Mafia doesn't own those boats.......
Poland is eyeing my country for migrant workers and possibly allowing them later for immigration. US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hongkong, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia are already benefiting from them. It kinds of late for Europeans to discover their Asian Partners that already in partnership with them for centuries, which is the Philippines, a Constitutional Republic, under Secular Government, a Liberal Democracy, a Catholic-majority Country with significant Protestants and Evangelical Minorities.
Yet divorce is NOT allowed in The Philippines. Secular my ass!

Don't worry. There is about 7 billion people who would like to immigrate to Europe.
Did this law pass then? I saw an article dated to earlier this month that said it was halted. Any article confirming it passed would be appreciated
1. Wages in Poland are low.
renting is often the national average earnings, not everyone wants to cohabitate with their parents (which is why Polish culture makes fun of Poles, considering them losers, or they nest in a square of 20m^2 in 7-10 people).
What will cause emigration, seeing no future here.
2. Crappy work culture - work for work and work often beyond strength.
This is not required of a foreigner, they often get lighter jobs for the same money.
Which causes emigration, seeing no future here.
3. Studies are required everywhere, even for cleaners. Which is absurd, most jobs don't actually require a degree, just a 2-3 day training at the assembly plant.
Poles are humiliated and ridiculed by their bosses and leaders for not having a university degree.
Which causes emigration, seeing no future here.
4. Lowest pay gap in the world (5%)
This means that the CNC operator will get an average of 5% more than a female saleswoman in a well-known retail chain called "Biedronka".
This causes the emigration of a qualified part of society.
Because what's the point of being a CNC operator when you can be a salesman or a cleaner for not much less money. Thanks to this, we have a country of cleaners and traders. Abroad, eg in Germany, a Pole is seen there as a specialist qualified in his profession ... well, yes - because they left themselves - mainly guys.
5. Socialism - giving away money and an absurd tax system, because it is known that someone has to be taken away to give. The less you earn, the better, because "you will get more from the state" and "you will pay less tax" - because you are poor ....xd
6. Immigration - holy nation
Ukrainians, Armenians and Georgians have been migrating here for years. But they are holy nations, you must not say anything bad about them, because you will go to prison, especially now, where being a Russian troll is very easy.
For example, calling for peace - 5 years in prison. Because calling for peace is currently the Kremlin's narrative....
Generally high banditry, the police do not protect local, and this causes migrations where the police still operate.
Now there is more immigration, because someone has to replace the Poles.
Pole - CNC operator, mechanic, roboticist, automatics, electrician, mechatronics will not work for the payment of some woman, saleswoman (i.e. not much above the minimum wage).
Uzbek, Kazakh, Indian, Arabs and others - they will work even for the minimum wage. Especially Hindus and Arabs - their dream is a wife from Europe (not a career) and there is someone to hunt for. Polish girls. love dark-skinned people very much - what guys using sex tourism in Poland have certainly noticed.
In Poland we also have about 2M girls aged 18-35, someone has to fuck them.
Polish women are constantly crying that there are no men and they can't find anyone and they have to be alone.
Of course, Polish women are well educated - over 80% have a university degree.
In Poland there is propaganda that if you don't have a degree, you're uneducated. 80% of Poles are uneducated.
80% have a technical or vocational school.
However, the reality in 15 years has shown that high education of a woman does not bring much to the economy.
It turns out that Campsite Management Studies, Europeistic, Gender Studies ... does not give a good job and a Polish woman works at the cash register in Biedronka...for sallaty of total uneducated womens...eg. primary....xd
The government, in order to fight for "good" jobs for Poles... is raising the minimum wage again, which will result in a paygap of 2% after the new year.
It will be better for sure.
Poland imports over 900,000 immigrants/yearly, mainly from Islamic countries, annually.
I don't know if the Polish authorities know - socialism is incompatible with Islam, so in the next 15 years Muslims will 'set up' Polish socialists.
It will be in Poland as in France.
And socialists around the world will talk about a failing economy - it wasn't real socialism.
Poland is a strange utopian country where the authorities say that you should not work on Sunday - only stay with your family (and I, for example, want to work because they give the best money)
People who chase after money are made fun of - thinking that chasing after money is something bad and these people should leave because they are ruining the country.
So they left.
In the last 15 years, over 5 million Poles have left.
And another 4 want to leave, of which 2 million are people aged 15-17.
Do you understand!? A Polish teenager, after graduating from school, e.g. an electrical technician, immediately wants to leave the country....
Poland today is a country of memes.
Poland was never part of the USSR 😊
Lol
Don't demand to much from a brit.
It wasnt 1991 either.
It wasn't exactly independent, either...
It was kind of a puppet state that was independent, actually the whole damn Warsaw Pact was puppet states
I dont think no one is against immigrants. What they want is legal immigrants and people who can intergrate and respect the culture and country they are going to.
Well, I'm against migrants in general.
Because I don't think a country is a zip-code for corporations, I think it should be a home for a nation.
But because of ponzie-scheme social security model, no migration would be painful.
So I hope at least we can get people from Europe and maybe vietnam, instead of low-IQ countries.
He said "Not even one muslim ILLEGAL immigrant". It's significant here...
Not even single terrorist attack in poland
People are adamant on distinguishing "legal" from "illegal" immigrants while completely ignoring that refugees are legally entitles to protection
They are not refugees, they come here without proper permit. Also add the fact that the culture are incompatible to our. Why dont you take it yourself and bring it to your home, all of them.
Congrats to Poland for leading by example of what to do, as compared to sweden what not to do, love from Austria
I'm sick of these "legal migrants who intergrate into our society." We usually don't fully intergrate into the British one until we become second generation immigrants, Vietnamese also very often stick to their own, but when brown people do the same then it's suddenly a problem. There is also a lot of misinformation about Sweden, like when people quote rape statistics but forget that Swedish women are way more likely to report sexual harrasment to the police than women in other countries, who are more likely to let it slide. With post-colonial countries, people suddenly forget that they were colonial, and Poland wasn't, so black people find themselves in Poland under different circumstances.
I have travelled a lot and you people write essays about how brown people (sorry "NOT LEGAL PEOPLE" even when they are here legally) are not fit to live with us, but from my experience they were just normal people who went about their lives, their lives don't revolve around scheming how to destroy you, don't make your life revolve around making theirs worse.
No one who is serious and can count two fingers in front of his eyes compare asylum seekers with legal immigration. Because it’s merely a loophole for illegal economic immigrants whom, different to legal immigrations, don’t have to justify anything other than providing a loosely credible story, sometimes even impossible to verify, like sexual identity (how do you determine if someone is gay?, this have been known since decades as an impossible task and when they “tried” they embarrassed themselves with stupidity, as you can’t). Asylum seekers have plenty of organizations (plus the criminals who also promote the bonanzas of Europe and work in secret tandem with the former) that help them play the system, it’s not like all they do is drop into Western countries just like that.
Thus saying that asylum seeking is “legal” is just rhetoric, not reality.
Poland needs as much immigrants as all European countries but this doesn’t change the fact that when a huge immigrant population enters a country, stresses the whole system but especially affect the poorer who have to share and compete with foreigners (the rich not only don’t see the difference on their services, if anything, they also have cheaper and plenty of labor to choose from for their needs).
But there is a cultural factor that also affects any country that decides to bring waves of people: if these are from neighboring countries or from countries whose identity is easily assimilable with the locals, this poses a low risk. Lower than those whose whole worldview is not only completely different but antagonistic to the locals. The latter is what happens with people from Muslin countries don’t get along with Humanist values (to say the least) let alone with the woke, delusional extremist values (that only coincide in their tribalistic view of things).
You don't understand. The government* says it's LEGAL so it has to be ok!

Imagine making that point to these people and somehow thinking you won't be met by an insult in response.

The idea that Gaullists intentionally caused the mess is so dumb, it disqualifies you from the conversation even more so than the fact your response, in and of itself, had seemingly no relation to what I've said in my comment.
@@jasonhaven7170 Everyone can checks the news along the YEARS (and the reaction of the public, manifested on the elections on parties leaning to the right) of the problems with immigrants and asylum seekers in Sweden, Netherlands and Germany. Everyone so many to mention for years, for instance when there was a night of debauchery in Germany when women were assaulted, quite close to the famous "one million can come" from Angela Merkel.
Whatever the history of how the did it and why the did it (like in France) the damage is done, and it's not about "space" but integration and assimilation into a unified culture with the same values. The recent riots and general destruction in France (one in so many, many, many ones along the years) doesn't speak of a estable society in harmony. And causes (that I mentioned) the rise of parties on the right whose goal is to reaffirm local values over seemingly extremist foreign values.
And let's not begin with how the whole of Europe react when some Muslim or their descendent commit an act of religious extremism with many (many, many) dead, from Britain to France, from Spain to Germany. Every time someone draws an inconvenient comic about Islam or Muhammad, the whole of Europe braces for possible retaliations.
Hence, all of Europe's people, is moving towards the right when it comes to immigration. Because it's something that when it's not done right on so many, many aspects, provoke many problems. From the countries of origin of the immigrants (integration and assimilation is not the same with people from similar cultural backgrounds or at least ones from countries where people is willing to adopt local's values that from those where there is VERY STRONG ethnocentric values, especial ethnoreligious one).
From Greece to Sweden, from Finland to France, from Germany to Spain, people no longer buys the left leaning recipes of denying the problems and yet reducing all the problems with purported empathy.
Demographic problems are and will still be there, from low natality to an aging population, but those who come not only don't have the solution, they come with new problems with themselves from their own countries perspectives and worldviews.
They will become those of Europe, tribalism can and will emerge as many migrants views are not compatible with Humanism, let alone with those of the woke toxic left (that even if lowering in numbers have "won" the media and the de facto ideological dictums of many media with some institutional and legal enforcements).
You can't have a country where children can be taught very opposing views as those of the woke regarding gender and sexuality and those of Islam and that (among many incompatibilities) will break the already unstable pact (plus Humanism was already degraded by the woke slow work of turning it, inside people's minds, into something it never was).
