Tensions With Germany & Ukraine Simmer, Poland To Report Unemployment Rate

POLAND
  • Poland and Germany exchanged barbs over a cash-for-visas scandal which may have resulted in the issuance of thousands of illegal work visas by Warsaw. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called for an investigation of the matter and warned that he may introduce additional border checks. Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau replied that Scholz's comments "violate the principles of sovereign equality of states, which constitutes a foundation of [Germany's] good neighbourly relations and friendly cooperation with Poland".
  • DGP circulated a source report noting that Polish authorities were caught off guard by the scale of Ukraine's recent rapprochement with Germany, which came alongside a sharp deterioration in its relations with Warsaw.
  • Poland will report its unemployment rate for the month of August at 09:00BST/10:00CEST. The jobless rate may have remained unchanged at 5.0%, according to Bloomberg consensus.
