Lukashenka is to blame!

[KP] With great professional interest, I awaited reports from Western journalists from a refugee camp on the border with Poland. I remember the Syrian government staged an attraction of unprecedented openness after the massive missile strike that the United States and its allies launched across the country. The reason then was the alleged use of chemical weapons by Assad's army in the city of Duma.
After he was freed from terrorists, Damascus sent all interested journalists there. Without unnecessary accreditations, without (lo and behold!) Escorts from the Ministry of Information, without the "tails" of intelligence officers. Work? I don’t want to! Look for evidence of the regime's treachery. Or, on the contrary, the provocations of the militants.
But representatives of major media brands have been doing anything but finding the truth about the chemical attack. They were more interested in the "bombing of schools and hospitals" than witnesses to the staged "sarin poisoning" at a local field hospital. We then found them (the witnesses), and the Western media read a prepared mantra about the atrocities of the Assad regime. Actually, we did not expect anything else then. We got used to it.
European reporters in Belarus did not disappoint either. Minsk, too, apparently decided to play free journalism, and now in the border zone, against the background of barbed Polish wire under the jets of water cannons and clouds of tear gas with microphones, CNN and BBC journalists are standing. I even held my breath. How they will get out?
"You see migrants (that's the word, not refugees) throwing stones and bricks at the police force," says Steve Rosenberg, BBC correspondent.
This is chaos that has no end. And this is very similar to a provocation. It seems that on this side of the border a decision was made to provoke a response from Poland and the EU. And with this picture, Alexander Lukashenko wants to show the world the image of a heartless and inhuman Europe. Belarus will not fail to use this image.
Bravo! Of course, I do not approve of the violent actions of some of the refugees, but it was necessary to ignore the fact that about two thousand people who were deceived by the hospitality of the European Union have been spending the night practically on the street for almost a week to the accompaniment of Polish loudspeakers and strobe lights.
Here, unprepared people will easily lose their nerves. At home, they were promised an unhindered journey to Germany through Minsk for their money. And then some "cosmonauts" with cannons stood in the way. Of course, those who are tired of trembling in frail tents at night take out their anger at them.
But Steve Rosenberg didn't go that far. This would spoil the previously prepared picture, in which tons of water are poured out into the frost on people only because Lukashenka wants it. How else to explain to the audience the actions of the Poles, so as not to expose the European Union in an unfavorable light.
Every year, by the way, about 700,000 refugees receive citizenship in the EU per year, most of whom came to the Old World through Turkey. This is about 2,000 people a day. As much as it is now freezing on the Polish-Belarusian border. Erdogan, apparently, did not want to show Europe as inhuman - so they let him in.
