Poland suspends asylum: a conflict between national security and human rights.

Poland says Belarus and Russia are sending many people from other countries to Europe's borders. They say this is a way to cause trouble, like a kind of attack.

Some people want to stay in Poland, but many travel to other European countries. Germany is worried about safety and is now checking more people at its borders.

Many groups that help people say Poland should still offer safety to those who need it. They say Poland promised to do this and has been helped by other countries in the past.
