Poland cannot accept migrants under European Union (EU) quotas after the attacks in Paris, Poland’s European affairs minister designate Konrad Szymanski said yesterday, in a sign that the terror attack could seriously undermine EU refugee policy.

The [EU Council] decision is valid for all EU countries, but its implementation is very hard to imagine today”. Szymanski will take up his position tomorrow (Monday) as part of a government formed by last month’s election winner.
