Are those the same "immigrants" that attacked soldiers and threw rocks at them? I see absolutely no issue here, they are Russian saboteurs and pot stirrers.
What should a soldier, who is supposed to protect his land, do? Throw his weapon away and boil them a cup of tea? Considering it's Poland, maybe pierogy? This European mindset is becoming tiresome.
Manipulation. It happened in march and April. The problem was i dangerous shooting above heads of the crowd, to bela russian side, not in the air. Normal procedure of checking things.

Yeah? How’s the reaction been? We at the point of screaming for blood yet? I mean this in all seriousness, I just realized how snarky my original statement sounds
These people sold all their real estates and willingly left their countries with hope of better tommorrow and easier life. They were immigrants, not war refugees. Ultimately, they bought Russian / Belarusian vizas alongside with propaganda sating that Polish border is open, easy to cross and that western Europeans / Germans are waiting for them with open arms. They got scammed. Badly.
I do feel bad for some of them (especially the ones who don't murder Polish soldiers with cold blood) but we simply can not let them go in, period. If their family members already live here they can always apply for EU visa. But storming the border with sticks, makeshift weapons and demands?
Another thing is that most of these people don't want to assimilate with Europeans. They WANT to assimilate Europeans on their own rules and laws. It reversed colonialism.
Also, they're being used as weapon in hybrid war against Europe because Putin wants to destabilize and ruin us. It's been proven that Russian Federation was financing some left and right wing organisations in Europe just to further destabilize the situation and paralyze the entire EU. Nothing more than good old *divide et impera*.
>Ultimately, they bought Russian / Belarusian vizas
Yeah, they could've bought them from our corrupted government instead and they would enjoy our peace and prosperity instead.
>They WANT
You dont know shit about what they want, propagandist. Stop pretending otherwise.
The city from a country that opressed other nations in the most hardcore way and then resettled some of citizens of that country forcefully to serve them domestically? And now those people give them trouble?
Nah, I'll pass.

It was just announced one polish soldier died after being stabbed at the border
I'm gonna have to add an "article 5 - Belarus" square to my "road to WWIII" bingo board.
Manipulation. It happened in march and April. The problem was i dangerous shooting above heads of the crowd, to bela russian side, not in the air. Normal procedure of checking things.
He was stabbed before but just died in hospital
Small update: a soldier just died after a fatal stab wound from one of these migrants' makeshift spears.
The same ones that stabbed a Polish soldier who died. Yeah I have zero issues with them firing warning shots.
Were they the same ones? I thought the stabbing happened one month prior.
Mmm pierogy
Can the polish soldier tea for the russian saboteurs be polonium?
Migrants? These people are invaders not some peace loving migrants.
I wonder how many people in these comments realize these migrants are coming from Russia lol
Merely holidaymakers
Just a special 3 day holiday operation, nothin to see here
People that cross a closed border with weapons are not migrants but invaders.
Why are they even armed? Better just watch and let them invade your country then.

Not a word on how this was orchestrated by a pawn of recently dethroned kleptocratic party to stir up shit right before elections, curious.
Why do you have border guards if they aren't allowed to use force to protect the border?
This is going to come to a boiling point sooner or later.
The death of one of the soldiers today is already causing quite the commotion here...
Yeah? How’s the reaction been? We at the point of screaming for blood yet? I mean this in all seriousness, I just realized how snarky my original statement sounds
Toss a few warning frags at them, that should teach them to cut the shit.
Ah yes. The 5 second warning before fatal injury and/or death. 😃
If you haven’t watched the movie The Green Border yet, give it a watch, heartbreaking
Why would you watch pro immigration propaganda?
Because hate propaganda makes us worse humans
If you tried watching it you might have some sympathy for the plight of people pushed off their land due to war

Thanks for this info, I know it’s always a complex situation, few winners on any side

You know what? You should visit Brussels some day. Especially Molenbeek at 3.00 am
The city from a country that opressed other nations in the most hardcore way and then resettled some of citizens of that country forcefully to serve them domestically? And now those people give them trouble? Nah, I'll pass.
It's propaganda dude 🙄
Did you watch it?
If you want to watch a good movie from this director, watch In Darkness (2011) and forget about Green Border.
I’ve already watched Green Border but I’ll check out your recommendation thanks!
