According to the Polish embassy in London, the past few weeks have seen over a dozen incidents directed against Polish nationals. The most serious ones left one man dead and three injured.
The Polish prime minister was assured that the British government would spare no effort to create a secure environment for Poles living in the UK.
In a film clip addressed to Poles living abroad and posted on social media, Szydło stressed that the security of Polish citizens, those living in Poland and beyond its borders, is her government’s top priority.
“We shall do our best not only to investigate all the circumstances of the recent events in Britain but also to make all Poles living and working in Britain feel secure,” she said. (mk/pk)
