When Ukraine hit back at bans on Ukrainian grain imports in Poland, Hungary and Slovakia by saying it would sue, Slawomir Mentzen, one of Confederation's leaders, sarcastically suggested that Warsaw would now"probably hike Ukrainians' 800+ and offer free loans for buying apartments in Poland".Government spokesman Piotr Muller has said that much of the support offered to Ukrainians is only temporary.
One recent report from CBOS said competition from refugees, who are in many cases themselves young women, for everything from jobs to romantic partners could lie behind this. Polls show that PiS, which in 2019 won 43.6% of the vote, is likely to remain the largest party in parliament after the election - in which a pro-EU, liberal bloc is its main opponent - but it may struggle to secure a majority. A coalition with Confederation might also then become an option.It is against this political backdrop that PiS decided to extend a ban on Ukrainian grain imports in response to rising anger in the party's rural heartlands.
