Poland and Baltics Prepared to Close Belarus Border in Response to 'Critical Incident'
Poland and the Baltic states have threatened to close their borders with Belarus entirely if a "critical incident" involving Wagner mercenaries occurs. The countries have expressed concerns about border security due to the presence of Russian mercenaries and an increase in migrants attempting to cross the border. They demand that the Wagner Group leaves Belarus and that illegal migrants are sent back to their home countries. The closure of border crossings would be implemented in the event of an armed incident or a mass breakthrough of migrants. Poland has already closed most of its border crossings with Belarus this year.
