Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Polish President Karol Nawrocki escalated the situation surrounding the revocation of his Order of the White Eagle because of internal political struggles. The president also revealed that at their first meeting, Nawrocki gave him a book about the Volyn tragedy.
I’ve read a short article about it but it seems that without relevant historical knowledge it’s hard to determine. My initial impression is that the Polish president is purposely making a spectacle of the issue and rage baiting his population, and that the main beneficiary is Putin.
That’s better context.
Thank you for a little background. The story keeps going through the news cycle and I was unclear on what the fundamental problem was.
