The opposition party Law and Justice promises that it will deport Ukrainian men of conscription age who are not working legally in Poland. The Polish Interior Ministry explained whether such a thing is even possible.
Recently in Poland, statements were made by the opposition Law and Justice about deporting Ukrainian men of conscription age. However, the spokesperson for the Polish Interior Ministry, Karolina Galecka, has already stated that such statements are populism, writes RFM24.
Will Ukrainians be deported from Poland?
Tobias Bocheński, vice-president of the Law and Justice party, announced that if he wins the elections in 2027 year, one of the first decisions of his government will be “the deportation of Ukrainians – men of conscription age who do not work in Poland legally.”
In the event of committing two offenses or failing to fulfil administrative or official duties in this system, there will immediately appear the relevant information, and the deportation process will begin,
— he said at the party congress.
However, Karolina Galecka, spokesperson for the Ministry of the Interior and Administration, replied that these ideas are “a complete absurdity and populism.” First of all, data from the Polish Social Insurance Institution show that 95% of Ukrainian men of conscription age work legally in Poland and pay taxes.

And those who violate the law are already being deported now in accordance with decisions of the border guard or other authorities.
Galecka also noted that deportation figures 2024 – 2025 years ago significantly exceed the figures of 2023 year when the party Law and Justice was in power in the country. In particular, 2023 year roughly 3000 foreigners were deported from Poland, while 2025 – about 10 000 people of various nationalities.
These data indicate that the current government pursues a very strict policy toward those who violate the law,
— stated the Interior Ministry spokesperson.
She also emphasized that Poland is a hospitable and open country. And in addition to Ukrainians who work there, there are many students who shop there and thus contribute to the country’s GDP growth.
