The Polish government is seeking a referendum to know voters' stance on the migrant crisis and what they think of letting "thousands of illegal immigrants" take shelter in the nation.
Poland s government said Monday it wants to ask voters whether they want dismantled a recently-built border wall that blocks unauthorized migration from Belarus.
Poland’s government said Monday it wants to ask voters whether they want dismantled a recently-built border wall that blocks unauthorized migration from Belarus. The loaded question is one of four the right-wing ruling party wants to ask in a referendum it intends to hold alongside the Oct. 15 parliamentary elections. The Law and Justice party is intent on winning an unprecedented third term in the elections.
The referendum is seen as a major element in the ruling party s electoral campaign intended to discredit the opposition and rally voters around the current government s policy. Observers say that the fact it would be held together with the elections could influence the voters decisions.
