Where? Why not in Belarus? Why are they shoveled up at the border and made to stay there instead of being housed in Bela?

It does not matter what Belarus does. Fuck them and Lukashenka too obviously. But Poland can't break international law and make these people suffer because of political bickering.

It's cruel, inhumane and illegal. Poland is supposed to be better than Belarus on human rights.

No country has an obligation to carry the burden of serving and\or integrating an endless stream of immigrants from whatever country or conflict they are running from. That's to to their decision informed not only by their policies, but also their capabilities. Poland is one of the poorer EU countries already, and Belarus (say Russia) use the situation to make EU either accept them and hold the burden or decline and look like they are baaad. But Russia\Belarus don't want to hold them themselves and treat them like pests unless they can use them as a weapon against the EU, thus pushing them to the border where they themselves keep them in temporal concentration camps to bully Poland and other bordering countries to accept them.

Can Germany break international law? Because most of the "asylum seekers" go straight for the German border, on which they setup border checks to stop them in Poland. But you won't see an article about that, huh

They need to go back and fix their own problems. Stop expecting the west to fix countries broken by Islam.
