'Anxiety, concern:' Ukrainians in Poland on Russia threat | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News

“There’s anxiety, concern,” said Zanyk, who has been living in neighbouring Poland for nine years.The news from back home is far from reassuring: Russia has deployed over 100,000 troops and heavy armour along Ukraine’s borders, according to the West, which fears that the Kremlin will stage an incursion.

There is a longstanding minority population of 50,000 people in Poland and around 300,000 Ukrainians have Polish residence permits but the actual number living there is estimated to be much higher.“We send home money so that they can make rent, pay the electricity bill, buy medication and food,” said Lessia Savchyn, a cashier in Warsaw.But Dmytro Dovzhenko, a veteran of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, said he was ready to return if Russia attacks.

He himself served in battle from 2014 to 2019 but now lives with his family in Wroclaw, a city in the southwest of Poland.“If there’s a big war, we’ll re-enlist and we’ll do what’s required.” The West’s involvement “is a good thing, even if it’s a little late,” said Miroslaw Kupicz from the Association of Ukrainians in Poland.
