Did you know that Poland and Hungary currently are wrestling with nearly 2 million Ukrainian refugees, while the EU is simultaneously threatening both countries with billions of dollars in sanctions?

Can you please provide link to details yu reference.

No, the sanctions were most likely put in place for their refusal to take up Syrian (amongst other nationalities) refugees.
If anything, the penalty could be raised for all I care because of the, now apparent, racist reasons they didn’t want them (white Ukrainians are welcomed with open arms now (as they should)).

I’ve NOT heard about this, so I’d love to see the source as well, so I can make an informed decision!!!

It’s always helpful to provide links when making a statement (especially a statement about something that is not commonly known).

This dates back to last year before Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. The EU took in in 34,712 refugees but Poland and Hungary took in none which has been found to be in breach of EU law. There may be a fine but I don’t see it running to billions and now Poland has taken in 3 million refugees from Ukraine the situation has changed. The Guardian newspaper in the UK covered the story

Thanks!
