Zelenskyy met with Polish President Karol Nawrocki
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with Polish President Karol Nawrocki that lasted over an hour. The main topics of discussion were countering the common threat posed by the Russian Federation and the need to maintain mutual understanding between the two countries.
During the meeting, the parties emphasized the importance of mutual support, joining forces, and building strong bilateral relations. Following their lengthy conversation, the leaders of the two countries agreed to continue their dialogue.
Zelenskyy reported this in a Telegram post.
As a reminder, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sent the Order of the White Eagle to Poland via “Nova Poshta.”
The decision to revoke Poland’s highest state award, the Order of the White Eagle, from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a unilateral act by the president. Under Polish procedure, the president may initiate the revocation of an award, but the corresponding act requires the countersignature (co-signature) of the Polish prime minister.
In response to the Polish president’s actions, Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga stated that he would return his state award to Poland.
Dnipro Mayor Boris Filatov reacted to Polish President Karol Nawrocki’s decision to revoke Poland’s highest state award, the Order of the White Eagle, from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He called the Polish leader a liar and a manipulator.
Oleg Tyahnybok, leader of the All-Ukrainian Union “Svoboda,” recalled the events in the village of Sahryn—now a village in the Lublin Voivodeship of Poland—where between 600 and 1,240 Ukrainians were killed and tortured in March 1944.
