Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has said following the brutal attack on a Ukrainian couple in Wrocław that the recent rise in violence in Poland is linked to the fact that radical groups feel they have political backing. He also addressed Polish President Karol Nawrocki.

Details: Tusk said that Poland must wage a determined fight against violence because thugs, hooligans and the culture of violence are becoming increasingly bold and brazen. He argued that they also feel emboldened by political support and added that it was no coincidence that the man who assaulted the Ukrainian woman portrayed himself as a defender of the borders.
