"Politically, pragmatically, this mechanism" of relocating asylum seekers to the EU "is unacceptable to us," says Polish Deputy Minister of the Interior. Bartosz Grodecki equated the financial contribution for each migrant not accepted to a "sanction" "We cannot explain to a society that has taken in over a million war refugees from Ukraine that now if they do not accept more, they will have to pay out of their own pockets," he added.
