The next stage was to discuss the times of the partition of Poland and the Second World War. The section ends with a description of the post-war period and the contemporary situation of Poland and Belarus.

It primarily includes media reports on Belarus’ activities in the field of bringing illegal immigrants, as well as conducting political activities between Poland, the European Union, Belarus, and Russia. The analysis was completed by examining the issue of crime on the border between Belarus and Poland. The study was summarized in terms of reference to the achievements of the work, including the achievement of its goals and assumptions. The main conclusion of the research is the assessment of the conflict between the two countries, which destroys mutual relations.
