Poland won’t accept refugees after Paris attacks: incoming minister

Bavarian allies cranked up pressure on German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Sunday to reverse her “open-door” refugee policy, saying the deadly attacks in Paris underlined the need for tougher measures to control the influx of migrants.

“The attacks were carried out simultaneously, and struck in areas of Paris that were quite far from each other”, Manenti said.
“There is no need for an overall review of the European policy on refugees”, Junker added.
Poland’s incoming government leaders declared Saturday that they would not accept refugees without security guarantees.
“Those who organised [and perpetrated] the attacks are the very same people who the refugees are fleeing and not the opposite”, Juncker told reporters in Turkey as he prepared to attend a G20 summit, which in light of the Paris attacks that came a day after large attacks in Beirut and Baghdad is expected to focus on security.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the allegations.
