Description
Poland has been one of Ukraine’s staunchest supporters since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion. But many of its people are slowly turning against the one million Ukrainian refugees given sanctuary over the past four years. Divisions between Poles and Ukrainians are being exacerbated by bitter cultural memory of a World War II massacre. Special correspondent Malcolm Brabant reports.
