In addition to the topic of whether the retirement age should be raised or left unchanged, the PM plans to ask residents whether the nation should accept thousands of unauthorized immigrants from the Middle East and Africa.
In an effort to make migration from the Middle East and Africa the focal point of the election campaign before the parliamentary elections scheduled for October, the ruling Law and Justice party in Poland, according to Info Migrants, has made this move. EU Helpers reports.

The fourth and final question on this referendum is, "Do you support the admission of thousands of illegal immigrants from the Middle East and Africa, in accordance with the forced relocation mechanism imposed by the European bureaucracy? Current Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki anticipates a resounding "No" from the majority.

Since the Russian invasion in 2022, the European nation has welcomed millions of Ukrainian migrants, but it hasn't been as receptive to immigrants from nations with a preponderance of Muslims. Migrants from these nations have been attempting to enter Poland through Belarus in recent months, and Poland has accused Minsk of using their plight as a political tool.

With more than 1.4 million beneficiaries, or 53% of all applicants, Germany and Poland have been the top nations to give temporary protection statuses to citizens of Ukraine, according to data from Eurostat.

The ruling party is making advantage of the issue of migration after it earned a commanding majority in the lower house of parliament in 2015, a year in which millions of people from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan entered the EU. Additionally, the same party is once again utilizing immigration for political gain, particularly in opposition to Donald Tusk, the rival candidate, who is reputed to favor immigration policies that benefit Germany more than Poland.

On October 15, PiS has also scheduled several referendums, one of which would ask Poles if they favor selling up the state-owned businesses. Another one inquires as to whether or not the retirement age ought to be increased.

Tusk, who presided over the European Council and was Poland's prime minister from 2007 to 2014, had earlier advocated for raising the retirement age but later changed his mind. On Monday, a new referendum subject will be made public.

Despite the building of a wall that was designed to withstand such irregular migration patterns, Poland feels threatened by its neighbor Belarus as the number of persons crossing the border erratically is increasing.

"The strike on the Polish border with Belarus by (Belarus President) Alexander Lukashenko was the first indication that war was breaking out in Ukraine. Mateusz Morawiecki, the prime minister of Poland at the time, said, "It was due to (our) political insight and the prediction of what may happen that we may focus now on aiding Ukraine, which is struggling to maintain its sovereignty.

More than 130 persons attempted to enter the eastern border of the EU on one day alone, according to Poland's Border Guard Stra Graniczna. The majority of these migrants were from Bangladesh, India, Eritrea, and Ethiopia, while five Ukrainians and one Moldovan were charged with smuggling.
