1. Decision of the president of Poland Karol Nawrocki to collect the Order of the White Eagle to the hostile Poland leader of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensk She's absolutely right. There should be no discussion on this subject. Symbolic matters. That's what we expected, and that's what happened. Thank you, Mr. President.
2. Volodymyr Zelenski should never receive the Order of the White Eagle due to the fact that he was not and is not the president of Poland friendly. Unfortunately president of Poland Andrzej Duda awarded Volodymyr Zelenski OOB at the time erstwhile monuments were already standing throughout Ukraine Stepana Bandery, and were worshipped by anti-Polish and criminal political-military formations specified as Ukrainian Pows dancing Army, Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists or 14. SS Grenadier Division.
3. The Order of the White Eagle should besides be received by erstwhile Ukrainian presidents who worshiped anti-Polish and criminal formations – Viktor Juszczence and Peter Poroshence. Yushchenko issued decrees to recognise the Ukrainian Insurgency Army (UPA) as "heroes fighting for Ukrainian independence". Poroshenko recognized members of the Ukrainian Insurgency Army (UPA) as militants and combatants fighting for independence, giving them privileges and publically praising their armed actions.
4. Order of the White Eagle should besides be taken from the Ukrainian historian Bohdan Osadczukwho studied in Berlin during the occupation, and during the war, as he claims, kept in contact with the Ukrainian Insurgency Army (UPA).
5. Don't worry about the Ukrainian consequence to OOB removal. The fact that the Head of the Ministry of abroad Affairs of Ukraine Andrij Sybiha and Ukrainian Ambassador to Poland Vasily Bodnar announce the dedication of Polish awards – the Commander's Cross with Star of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Poland and the Knight's Order of Merit of the Republic of Poland – is beneficial for Poland. They should never receive these awards. Throughout their political career, they did not argue the heroization of anti-Polish and chauvinist formations in Ukraine.
6. The correct decision of president Karol Nawrocki does not, of course, alter the general assessment of the political direction chosen by him. Karol Nawrocki was not and is most likely not a typical of our political environment and our way of reasoning about Poland. In this case, the Ukrainian ornamentics of the head of state should not be given besides much importance. The main message in and outside the country is the fact that the Order of the Eagle White leader of the state is being taken, who disregards Polish historical sensitivity and glorifys Nazi collaborators and murderers of Poles.
7. After this decision of president Karol Nawrocki, nothing will be the same. I doubt, of course, the sincerity of the intentions of the president of Poland. In my opinion, it was forced by the opinion of the public and is motivated by the desire to attract an increasingly sceptical electorate to Ukraine in Poland. But intentions are secondary here. The leader of Ukraine yet stopped being a golden calf, which must not be criticized no substance what policy he had towards Poland.
8. It is clear that politicians in the Russian Federation specified as Dmitri Medvedev is Kirill Dmitijev utilized the fact that OOB was taken for their political purposes. That was to be expected. Indeed, the decision in any way undermined the seriousness of Poland on the global stage, but it made the decision to grant and own the Order of the White Eagle by Volodymyr Zelenski much more ridiculous. In the future, this fact may be applicable in the process of improving Polish-Russian relations.
9. It must not be allowed to let the communicative of the communities that are in front of Kiev to master space on social media. Most Poles, which even showed proukrain media, expected to receive the Order of the White Eagle and the ungrateful leader of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensk.
10. In my opinion, we will shortly be observing a large-scale action aimed at president Karol Nawrocki. Despite my critical assessment of his actions, I believe that in the coming days we should cool down our criticism and emphasize the correctness of his decision. In my opinion, this is the Polish national interest.
