Motto: "Know the proportion, my lord" (anniec Raptusiewicz in conversation with Dyndalski in the first act of comedy Revenge Alexander Fredry).
Judicial trials, called "pyskovki" in the times of the Polish People's Republic, have now acquired a fresh name and are described by the modern fresh York as judicial processes related to "the speech of hatred".
Non-existence
What is “the speech of hatred” and on what basis is it pursued – translator Police: "Although Polish law does not make a separate regulation concerning hatred speech and hatred crimes, both phenomena are considered incompatible with existing Polish law (the provisions of the Criminal Code and the civilian Code). For example, insulting, advocacy, threatening or calling upon hatred against national, ethnic, racial, spiritual differences or due to undenominationality is prohibited and is punishable by criminal code (Articles 212, 216, 256, 257)’. The cited provisions of the Criminal Code (Articles 212, 216, 256, 257) had their counterparts in the 1969 Criminal Code (near PRL-owski). However, in the first half of the Polish People's Republic (until 1969) the pre-war Criminal Code of 1932 (the alleged Makarewicz Code) was inactive in force, which was only upgraded in the Polish People's Republic. In another words, for respective decades, the Codex Makarevicz of 1932 has been the origin of Polish penal codes.
Pistachios
Although in the laboriously built modern, post-circular past of the Polish People's Republic of Poland, then socialist Poland is intentionally, propagandaally associated mainly with political processes and economical scandals, it was the tiny “scans” of the neighbouring and workers that massed the region courts of that time. Poles were very eager to search justice on the formal road for colloquial “calling a thief” or “loose” in the staircase. In time, in order to relieve the public courts from the collapse of cases for trivial verbal clashes, part of specified conflicts (qualified as hooligan pranks or disturbing peace) began to settle the College of Offences. The Polish People's Republic and its judiciary treated these processes as a manifestation of "low individual culture" and money.
What does American propaganda play?
Since 2024, I have seen an alarming asymmetry in Ukrainian-Polish relations. I've expressed it in mine. felieton of July 30, 2024. I showed unusual hypersensitivity to Ukrainians surviving in Poland, who, despite the initiation of all procedures by Polish law, requested “help” from the American Radio (Radio Free Ukraine), funded by the U.S. government, which published the film: Насилля над українськими дітьми у: матері розповідають деталі (Violence against Ukrainian children in Poland: mothers tell details). This movie has caused quite a few negative emotions towards Poland and Poles in Ukrainian environments, as evidenced by over a 1000 4 100 aggressive comments. I stress that it is amazing that the case presented in this movie has already been given the appropriate legal course provided for in Polish law. It's on! In this state of affairs, exploiting this subject, as it was done in Radio Liberty of global scope, raises the question: what is it expected to serve? What does American propaganda play?
Sybiha reacts
In the current situation in the Polish public space, I did not meet with a single voice of opposition. Nor have I met with the protest of Polish government factors. No explanations and corrections were requested from the U.S. station Радіо Свобода (Radio Free Ukraine), financed by the U.S. government! In December, the head of the Ministry of abroad Affairs of Ukraine declared the situation "absolutely unacceptable" Andrij Sybiha Cases of harassing Ukrainians. Sybiha appealed to Poland to punish those who showed aggressive attitude towards his countrymen. "It is in our common interest to prevent and respond to specified a reluctance. As Minister of abroad Affairs of Ukraine, I insist on a fair punishment for those who let themselves to have xenophobic attitudes against Ukrainians both in Poland and in another countries. The Ukrainians definitely did not deserve this" – reads the statement. Ukrainian Minister expressed hope that "a number of demonstration cases of work for specified actions" will be a adequate signal that there is no area for specified behaviour in European society. He added that the Ukrainian consular post would follow all specified cases and respond ‘quickly and essentially’. "We will not tolerate this" He stressed.
The beetle responds
On the above, the Minister of Justice responded from the phase during the celebration of Ukraine independency Day on 24 August 2026 in Castle Square in Warsaw. Waldemar Żurek. He gave a speech during which he announced the mobilisation of investigators. The Minister declared that he had appointed over 100 prosecutors throughout Poland, whose task is to prosecute all manifestation of hatred. Provided about the strong and systemic reaction of the state to crimes motivated by national prejudices and called on Polish citizens to remember the sacrifice of Ukrainian soldiers defending Europe against aggression from the East.
Still Servants
After a speech by Minister Waldemar Żurek on the phase of the event theatre: On the Day of independency of Ukraine on August 24, 2026 at Castle Square in Warsaw, I closely followed Ukrainian media. In Ukrainian media, they were rejected as a crucial success of Ukrainian abroad policy and diplomacy. As a credit to Minister Andrij Sybiha, who systematically pressed the Polish authorities. The Russian media were different. They referred to words that fell on 29 March 2022 from the mouth of the then spokesperson of the Ministry of abroad Affairs, Luke Jasina: “We are servants of the Ukrainian people”. Minister Żurek's message was then shown. It was presented as proof of the continuation of the Polish – servile policy towards the banner Ukraine.
A blow in the seriousness of the Polish state
I respectfully mention to the actions of Polish prosecutors pursuing authentic criminals. Example This is simply a case described by Natalia Grzybowska in the August 13 article Cocaine loaded with cash as fruit. The trial for the Gdańsk nightclub has begun: “The Gdańsk nightclub ‘Rozi’ was to organize prostitution, cocaine trafficking and money laundering. On Thursday before the Gdańsk territory Court the trial of 32 defendants began”. My individual attitude towards the statements of Minister Żurek is different, not political, but formal. The Law of 28 January 2016 on the Public Prosecutor's Office, Article 2, describes what the prosecution should do: "Prosecution performs criminal prosecution tasks and upholds the regulation of law". There's no mention in this Act of the prosecutor having the right to make political statements. In addition, I wonder how many legal equivalents request to be carried out in order to qualify for acts that qualify as “dishess” or the usual bullies, it was essential to appoint as many as 100 prosecutors throughout Poland to prosecute offences in the form of mouths and petty crimes? To give these common pathological behaviors a political dimension... To shoot flies with 100 prosecutorial cannons! I admire the minister's equivalence of making a fork out of a needle. In my subjective assessment, this kind of action suits the seriousness of the Polish state.
