Poland \u2013 After the islamist\u00a0attacks of Manchester, in which\u00a022 people died, including two Polish citizens, the Polish Prime Minister, Beata\u00a0Szyd\u0142o, made strong statement regarding political elites and Western Europeans.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are not going to take part in the madness of the Brussels elite. We want to help people, not the political elites,\u201d started\u00a0Szyd\u0142o.<\/p>\n
\u201cRise from your knees and from your lethargy or you will be crying over your children every day.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt needs to be said clearly and directly: This is an attack on Europe, on our culture, on our traditions.\u201d She went on to ask: \u201cDo we want strong politicians who can see the danger and can fight against it efficiently?\u201d<\/p>\n
