The action was organized by the Konfederacja ("Confederation") party. It promotes the slogan "Letʼs stop the Ukrainization of Poland." The party, which has long opposed mass immigration from Ukraine, claims that Ukrainian refugees receive "benefits" that Poles do not have.
Party activist Karolina Pikula organized another protest against the "Ukrainization of Poland" in Syanko. However, no one showed up for the event, which Pikula broadcast live on YouTube. Only one man showed interest, he came to argue with her.
After Polish media reported on the "turnout" at the rally, Pikula tweeted that she would "continue to do her work relentlessly against the deliberate colonization of Poland by Ukraine."
- As of July, more than 1.2 million Ukrainian refugees have registered in Poland.
- The Polish authorities will issue special electronic passports to Ukrainian refugees. They will be able to travel through the European Union with them.
