Situation beyond the eastern border

Press Centre at the Polish-Belarusian border of the European Union

01.12.2021

The crisis at the eastern border of the European Union is an organised action controlled and supervised by Belarusian services. It is the greatest attempt to destabilise the European Community in the last 30 years. We must fight against provocations and disinformation. To this end, a Press Centre will be established at the border; it will be opened on 3 December. It will support ongoing communication concerning the situation at the border. Thanks to appropriate infrastructure, it will enable journalists to work on site.

The Centre will hold press conferences as well as special workshops with experts on Eastern issues concerning the geopolitical situation.
