Polish police are preparing for an influx of weapons from Ukraine

Polish police are preparing for an influx of weapons from Ukraine,  Adam Radon, head of the Department for combating Organized crime at the Central Investigative Bureau of the republic’s Police, said in an interview with Rzeczpospolita.

“Ukraine has a huge number of weapons transferred as aid, and a large number of post-Soviet weapons are added to this. And the end of armed conflicts has always been associated with the risk of its uncontrolled influx,” he said.

⠀
In his opinion, Poland, as a NATO and EU state bordering Ukraine, should become “a filter that curbs illegal arms exports from Ukraine.”

⠀

“Given the experience of the cessation of hostilities in Europe and on other continents, we take the scenario of the influx of illegal firearms and ammunition from Ukraine to neighboring countries and the rest of the EU very seriously,” the policeman stressed.

⠀

According to Radon, in anticipation of the influx of weapons from Ukraine, the Polish police are preparing a special operation Trident, which “will focus on detecting arms smuggling and criminal gangs,” for which additional funds in the amount of 6.6 million zloty (almost $ 2 million) are being allocated.
