Volodin called the EU's attitude to the situation with migrants at the Polish border as double standards

“Most of the refugees are from countries where NATO troops were deployed.

To build a democracy on your own model, to impose your own standards.

Libya, Iraq, Syria - none of these states have benefited from the international expansion of the West.

And now the citizens of these countries are forced to seek refuge, ”the State Duma speaker said in a statement.

As the politician noted, Poland, with the consent of the EU and contrary to humanistic values, “used gas and firearms against people,” and no statements condemning “such radical actions” have been heard.

“Instead, they rattle their weapons and threaten Belarus with sanctions.

What is this if not double standards? "

- said Volodin.

Russia, for its part, will support Belarus, "which found itself in a difficult situation, faced with an influx of migrants," he added.

“We will definitely raise this issue at the upcoming session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Union of Belarus and Russia,” said the Chairman of the State Duma.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a conversation with the Acting Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Angela Merkel, suggested setting up a discussion of the problem of the migration crisis in the contacts of the EU member states with Belarus.
