The Poles Sympathetic towards Refugees
The World Refugee Day is celebrated on the 20th June. The vast majority of the Poles (72%) think that Poland should contribute in international help for refugees escaping wars and military conflicts. However, over a half (58%) believe that it should be a temporary aid (until they can safely return to their countries). Every seventh interviewee (14%) accepts granting them a permission to settle down in Poland. One in five (21%) thinks that Poland should not admit refugees affected by military conflicts.
More on that issue can be found in the CBOS report in Polish: Poles about the Problem of Refugees.
The data comes from the survey “Current Problems and Events” conducted in May 2015.
