Brief retelling from RIA II

Deputy Speaker of the Polish Sejm Krzysztof Bosak noted that in a democracy not everyone should speak with one voice.

Bosak pointed out that Polish politicians should not be forced to utter any platitudes and he is skeptical about the articulation of taking sides in a conflict.

When asked by a journalist whether this was his war, the politician replied: “Fortunately, not yet.”

MOSCOW, September 16 – RIA Novosti. Vice-Speaker of the Polish Sejm from the coalition of nationalists and Eurosceptics “Confederation” Krzysztof Bosak wittily put the pro-Ukrainian journalist Monika Oleinik in his place, writes Do Rzeczy.

Oleinik tried to get Bosak to admit that all Poles are obliged to consider the Ukrainian conflict as their own.

“He noted that in a democracy, not everyone should speak with one voice. When asked whether all politicians should say that this is “our war,” he pointed out that this is a cliché, and Polish politicians should not be forced to utter any platitudes,” the material says.

According to Bosak, he has always been skeptical about the formulation of belonging to a side in a conflict and has refrained from demagoguery, preferring to consider real problems rather than various clichés.

Oleinik again asked Bosak if this was his war.

The politician replied: “Fortunately, not yet.” "I'd like to keep it that way."

Relations between Warsaw and Kyiv have been complicated for many years by the issue of interpretation of the massacre by Ukrainian nationalists of the mainly Polish population of Volyn, Eastern Galicia and neighboring regions in 1939-1945. The peak of massacres in 1943-1945 - the Volyn massacre - Warsaw recognized as genocide, responsibility for which lies with the Ukrainian nationalists from the OUN*-UPA*.

In 2026, the conflict reached a new level. Vladimir Zelensky took part in the reburial of the remains of one of the leaders of the OUN*-UPA*, and also assigned the name “In the Name of the Heroes of the UPA* to a unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For this, he was deprived of Poland’s highest award - the Order of the White Eagle.
