Presiden Polandia memveto undang-undang untuk memperpanjang tunjangan bagi pengungsi Ukraina

President Karol Nawrocki vetoed a bill that would have extended welfare benefits for Ukrainian refugees, arguing that only working refugees should receive child benefits. The veto blocks the bill that would have extended the current system until 2026, prompting criticism from Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who warned that the measure would punish vulnerable families. About one million Ukrainians—mostly women and children—live in Poland. The move reflects rising anti‑Ukrainian sentiment, even though studies show refugees benefit the economy. Nawrocki also pledged to propose a new law tightening aid and banning the promotion of nationalist Ukrainian leader Stepan Bandera. The veto deepened the political stalemate between the president and the government.
