Details
Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said that his country is ready to help Ukraine in the issue of returning citizens of military age to participate in the war against russia.
I think many Poles are outraged when they see young Ukrainian men in hotels and cafes and hear how much effort we have to make to help Ukraine.
Any support is possible in the sense of returning to the Motherland for those who may lose the right to stay in Poland due to the expiration of the passport
However, the minister did not explain the details of how Poland will provide this assistance.
Recall
The Ukrainian government has issued new rules according to which passports for men of military age can only be issued domestically and not at foreign diplomatic missions. This has resulted in men aged 18 to 59 living abroad being unable to renew their passports or obtain new ones.
