According to an article in Pravda, a resolution was recently issued in Poland by the Christian National Union's main council, one of Poland's political parties, that entry visas should be introduced for citizens of the former USSR to deter the influx of visitors (8 Oct. 1992). Demands have appeared in the Polish Press for the "erection of more fences on the eastern frontier of the 'European home' to afford protection against worse neigbors" (Ibid.).
