The three main issues addressed in the report, referencing Articles 2, 4, and 5 of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (also right), are: the lack of protection of minority rights in Poland, the lack of persecution by the Government for racist and anti-Semitic publications and broadcasting, and the lack of comprehensive anti-discrimination laws or the implementation thereof.
