The Czech Republic will hold off on sending up to 150 soldiers for now to help Poland protect its bor-der with Belarus after the migrant situation stabi-lised, the Czech defence minister said on Monday.

The number of attempted crossings into Poland by migrants travelling via Belarus from the Middle East or Africa has fallen from highs seen in Novem-ber. The European Union accused Minsk of engi-neering a crisis, but Belarus denies that.

The Czech government had approved last week a plan to send soldiers to help Poland with building and repairing barriers and other support work.—Agencies
