WARSAW (RIA Novosti): Hungary and the Czech Republic intend to send their troops to the Polish-Belarusian border, Polish Minister of National Defense Mariusz Blaszczak told reporters .
Earlier it was reported that military units from Great Britain and Estonia had already arrived in Poland to help protect the border with Belarus .
“Negotiations are now underway to support the Polish Army with the Hungarian and Czech military components,” Blaszczak said.
“We are talking about when and in what formula we will receive this support,” he added.
“We believe that the best solution is assistance related to the maintenance of temporary fencing, maintenance and construction of access roads,” said Blaschak.
Several thousand migrants have accumulated on the border of Belarus and Poland in recent weeks, hoping to get to the EU countries.
The Polish authorities have strengthened border security, pulled in the military and thwarted attempts by illegal immigrants to enter the country, blaming Minsk for the migration crisis. All these accusations are denied by Belarus, claiming that Poland is forcibly expelling migrants to its territory and artificially aggravating the situation with refugees.
