Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions she has had with her Polish counterpart on reports that ethnic minority refugees crossing the border into Poland from Ukraine had been under attack by nationalist groups in the Przemyśl area.

The UK is committed to the principle of non-discrimination on any grounds, including on the basis of race. The UK has deployed humanitarian experts to Poland to provide logistics, advice and analysis of the refugee situation. It is important that all those seeking to leave Ukraine are able to do so and the Foreign Secretary regularly speaks with the Polish Foreign Minister Rau where these issues are raised.
