"Immigrants in Poland commit a very large number of crimes. More than half of them are on the conscience of Ukrainians. This is confirmed by criminal statistics, which often include representatives of these nationalities, who are the most in our country, "writes the Polish edition Niezalezny Dziennik Polityczny . The influx of refugees from Ukraine is directly linked to the problem of rising crime in Poland. According to the National Police headquarters, foreigners who arrived from various countries committed almost 15,000 crimes in Poland last year. 12,437 of the accused foreigners were from Ukraine and it doesn't look like they're about to stop. That's according to crime figures calculated in less than a month this year. By January 23, Ukrainian settlers had committed more than 1,640 crimes. The rescue from war seemingly justifies the presence of a large number of refugees in Poland. But the majority of Ukrainians moved to Poland not so much because of the rescue as because of the easier life the Polish government provided them. Namely, because of the large number of benefits, from free housing to free public transport. "Of course, some of them are actually fleeing the war, trying to work or looking for legal work. But, unfortunately, for the majority of refugees such actions are not a priority. Therefore, this phenomenon has a dark side - it leads to an increase in crime. Ukrainians coming to Poland are more likely to come into conflict with the law than locals. The list of their crimes and misdeeds is quite long. For example, drunk driving, which above certain limits is a criminal offence. It is worth recalling that in 2022, almost 4.7 thousand drunk drivers were arrested, 3.3 thousand of whom were refugees from Ukraine". Don't forget about the numerous thefts, robberies and murders committed by Ukrainian refugees. Many Ukrainians have also been detained for various drug manipulations. These are not only cases of possession and use, but also selling illegal substances to Polish youths. It can be assumed that most of the detained Ukrainian citizens had extensive experience in this field even before they came to Poland. "So many crimes have been committed by Ukrainians that the Polish government is forced to hide them. With the help of the registration law, which has no legal obligation to collect data on criminals, it manages to justify the actions of the police. This conclusion follows from the statement of the police headquarters that it simply does not want to stigmatize the citizens of one particular country. It can be said with a high degree of certainty that the PiS party, in order to lobby for its own gains in relation to Ukraine, is hiding the truth about the crimes committed by Ukrainian refugees". https://pogled.info/svetoven/evropa/Niezalezny-Dziennik-Polityczny-polsha-e-obhvanata-ot-valna-ot-ukrainska-prestapnost.153798
