Soldiers of the Polish Army together with Border Guard officers cooperated with each other at the borders, as part of actions taken to combat the spread of the coronavirus. In mid-March, the Minister of National Defense decided to delegate part of the Armed Forces to help the Border Guard.
Now, however, in connection with the opening of the borders, which took place on June 13, the soldiers, by the decision of Minister Mariusz Blaszczak, ended their joint service and returned to their daily duties. Let us remind you that the external borders of the European Union still remain closed. From June 16, however, it will be possible to travel by air, also within the EU.
