Zakharova invited Poland to accept 2,000 migrants due to participation in the invasion of Iraq
the Belarusian-Polish border reminded the Poles about the invasion of Iraq and invited Poland to accept 2,000 Iraqis. She wrote about this in her Telegram channel.
The diplomat said that Iraq was destroyed with the active participation of Warsaw. “More than 2,000 Polish soldiers invaded this sovereign state to establish democracy,” she said.
Zakharova recommended that the Polish government let “at least as many“ grateful Iraqis ”enter the country, whose ancestors did not dream of such a life, building their own in their own country, until the shameless democratizers broke in there. ”
The migration crisis on the borders of Belarus and the European Union began at the end of May. Large groups of illegal migrants from Africa and the Middle East began to storm the borders of Lithuania, Poland and Latvia in the hope of obtaining asylum in the European Union. It is assumed that the Belarusian authorities use their national tour operator Tsentrkurort to transport migrants to the EU borders and make money on it.
The invasion of Iraq began in 2003 in order to overthrow the regime of President Saddam Hussein. The official reason for the outbreak of hostilities was the connection of the regime with international terrorism, in particular, with the Al-Qaeda movement ( a terrorist organization banned in Russia ).
The total number of Polish troops in Iraq from the spring of 2003 to the spring of 2005 was about 1,700 troops. After the defeat of the regular Iraqi troops and the occupation of the country's territory, Poland, as part of NATO, was engaged in military training of Iraqi regular troops, and also sent police officers to the country who trained Iraqi law enforcement officers under a special program.
