Giving up power is not a simple matter. Not even technically, but purely psychological. So I wasn't amazed that the sages at the PiS pulled out, like a rabbit out of a hat, their Wunderwaffe.
The Commission for Russian Influences, as it is referred to, before its members were recalled by the Sejm, announced a "partial report" on the alleged influence of the national safety Service of the Russian Federation (FSB) on the Military Counterintelligence Service. This was expected to be the final blow at Donald Tusk, but it turned out to be a simple cap. But something else is interesting. The ‘report’ includes a list of the names of FSB agents visiting the SKW headquarters, together with the dates and circumstances of these visits. Only, as the media revealed, there were also... priceless Ukrainians on the list. Their names were quietly removed from a study that appears on government pages.
It reminded me of a akin fresh collapse of our intelligence aces. In August, the ABW in cooperation with the National Prosecutor's Office crashed a network of Russian intelligence which operated in Poland. 16 people were detained. However, as the Washington Post stated, the Polish authorities, for political reasons, did not make public that among the detainees within the broken grid there were 12 Ukrainians. As the full group was to have a full of16 members, this is an awesome proportion. The tasty of the case is added by the fact that most of the Ukrainians detained have the position of war refugees in Poland.
It's worth saying at this point: I didn't say, "We didn't say." Not for petty satisfaction. But to remind you that we were the ones who warned against letting in all actual and presumed refugees "how's it going". In vain. Poles in a motion of ill-conceived hospitality opened hearts and boundaries widely. Those who said that the primary concern for their own safety should be preserved immediately closed their mouths, with a small aesthetic description “ruskie onuc”.
Meanwhile, according to the latest Polish data The border guards from February 24, 2022, the day of the beginning of the war, exceeded the Polish-Ukrainian border over 17.59 million “refugees” from Ukraine. On average, these “refugees” are afraid of war, as at least any of them regularly visit their home diapers, but on a regular basis benefitting from a comfortable life at the expense of naive Europeans, including Poles. Currently, Poland has about 3 million citizens Ukraine, half of which were here before the war.
How many of these 17.59 million “refugees” recorded by border guards or even from these 3 million citizens Ukraine presently surviving in Poland are agents of abroad (probably different) interviews? – we do not know. I'm certain it's a fraction of a percent. It's just that with numbers so huge, even a fraction of a percent is an alarming amount. Meanwhile, especially in the first weeks of the war, all the volunteers were allowed in Poland. Practically without any control or verification. The warnings, formulated besides by the publicists of our weekly magazine, were consistently ignored by the minister Kamiński. alternatively of taking action for the safety of the state, written apparatusists have utilized illegal censorship against us, too. All in accordance with the concept that the simplest way to overcome the fever is to break the thermometer.
However important, the problem of infiltration of the wave of “refugees” by abroad services is not the only one. Apart from them, many common criminals besides joined Poland and Europe. Today, their activities, already organized, must fight law enforcement agencies throughout the Western world.
The seemingly smaller, but prospectively much more serious problem may be to enter the territory of the Ukrainian neo-Nazi communities. utmost chauvinists Stepana Bandery they may now appear as extremes, but they will spread their criminal ideology in the Ukrainian diaspora. This is peculiarly dangerous for us, due to the fact that Ukrainian nationalism is defined in an unambiguously anti-Polish and confrontational way. Therefore, we must not only be condemned but systematically combated.
There are more problems. Recently, for example, the media has been alerting that the number of HIV infections has late increased markedly.. According to GIS data, in 2022 the number of HIV infections was recorded in Poland – 2380 cases, compared to 1248 cases registered in the erstwhile year – 2021. This means an increase in the number of infections by about 90% from year to year. As the habits of Poles have not changed drastically in specified a short time, no new, more infectious varieties of the virus have appeared, there is only 1 logical conclusion. This emergence of a new, crucial population was a origin in expanding the number of diseases. Especially as HIV was found in Poland in 2021 in 27.557 people. During the same period in Ukraine it was, with a akin size of population, about 260,000 people. So 10 times more.
HIV is the most spectacular but not the only major medical problem. The Department of Epidemiology of Infectious Diseases and Oversight of NIZP PZH recorded a double increase in the number of cases of syphilis detected compared to the same period last year. There have besides been 4314 tuberculosis cases during this period, which means 17.5% more cases than in the erstwhile year. And so on, and so on. Why did the same government, which only a fewer weeks earlier consistently poisoned the lives of Poles with absurd "antipandemic" ideas, forget to examine the crowds crossing our border? – it will stay a mystery. It's just another of the shocking neglects that burden the government's political account Mateusz Morawiecki.
In the first half of 2022 Poles gathered their hearts and homes. However, by being overly delicate to the actual or thought harm of our neighbor, we forgot to care about our common interests. About simple caution and just common sense. Now we pay a advanced price for it. Let us remember, however, that in pro-Ukrainian and de facto anti-Russian amok, there were besides those who kept common sense. Today's sobriety is most likely quite a few their (our) credit. It's a good forecast that gives hope for a better tomorrow.
