Strong words by Zgorzelski about Zelenski. He referred to UPA
– present Zelenski, if he wasn't a hostage to the flag ideology, that had hundreds of opportunities to say in Poland One magic wordwhich opens up space for further action. He never said that. I am convinced that all these stories of them about the exhumation are simply for naive people – Zgorzelski said.
