EU Fears Trump’s Poland Visit Will Bolster Right Wing

“One cannot but feel a bit suspicious if it isn’t an attempt to break up European unity.”

The European Union fears that President Trump’s visit to Poland, a rare country in Europe with some sanity in that they reject the continent’s influx of Middle-Eastern migrants, will bolster right-wing populists and damage “European unity.”

From Breitbart London:

The president’s one-day stop-off – en route to the G20 summit in Hamburg – is for a gathering dubbed the Three Seas project, bringing together leaders from Central Europe, the Baltic States, and the Balkans.

The event has been convened by Poland as it bids to garner influence outside the EU – which has clashed with its nationalist government over migrant policy and sovereignty.

“One cannot but feel a bit suspicious if it isn’t an attempt to break up European unity,” an EU diplomat said about the Three Seas project, speaking to Reuters.

The ruling Law and Justice party in Poland currently shares the President’s views on immigration and climate change.

Poland has also faced severe pressure from the European Union to take on its fair share of migrants or face severe sanctions. Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Konrad Szymanski said this worsens the position of migrants. “From the political point of view, this action … unnecessarily heats up political tensions of which there are already too many in the European Union.”

“If necessary, Poland is ready to defend its legal arguments in court.”

“When it comes to reducing the chances of Poland being hit by [Islamist] terror attacks, the only proven method is to not allow in Muslim migrants,” said Ryszard Czarnecki of Poland’s center-right Law and Justice party.
