We don't want problems

Only 42 out of over 5,300 people who have applied for refugee status in Poland since the beginning of 2016 have been granted that status. Russian nationals who are Chechen in origin, Tajiks and Ukrainians comprised the largest groups of applicants.

In 2015, over 12,000 foreigners applied for international protection in Poland, but only 348 of them were granted refugee status.

A high commission of the UN says Poland was in no way affected by last year’s mass inflow of refugees from North Africa and the Middle East into Europe.

"Poland for Poles - Poles for Poland" 

A majority of Poles are opposed to their country taking in any refugees and Jarosław Kaczyński, the head of Poland’s ruling, conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party said that the country would not accept refugees because they posed a threat to security.

So far there have been no terrorist attacks in Poland or spread of diseases that have been eradicated in the country - unlike what is happening in the United States and European Union.

Poland is a highly homogeneous society of Christians with a very small percentage of minority groups in the population. Historically, Poland has been very receptive of allowing those groups who had been ostracized and persecuted to establish settlements in Poland including Jews expelled from Western European countries or Tartar Muslims who assimilated into the Polish culture. Today, a small but growing number of Vietnamese have migrated to Poland. Each aforementioned minority group has not unsettle the domestic tranquillity of the Polish state.

If Poland stays their course on letting few refuges in compared to other EU countries - It will be an interesting statistical comparison on which countries have social strife versus Poland's relative tranquillity.

Still nobody is posing the question, "Why aren't Muslim refugees taking land routes to other Muslim countries for refuge"? There would certainly be significantly less culture shock.
