> However, newspaper Gazeta Krakowska notes that, contrary to claims by some local residents, media outlets and nationalist groups, the foundation’s premises are not a mosque. They do not, for example, have minarets or public calls to prayer five times a day.
For 90% of the western world a mosque is any building where muslims decide to gather so that tracks.
Also for me this backlash was inevitable as long as parties like PiS or Konfederacja continue with their rhetoric that treats “Islamic” migration as culturally incompatible with Polish society, frequently campaign against European Union quotas and treat Poland as a fundamentally christian Nation.

What does “nationalist” mean in this sentence? It seems to have more connotation than the strictly dictionary definition.
