The issue of the demolition of plaques commemorating russian soldiers in the military cemetery in Warsaw is reflected in the Russian media. On 18 and 22 October 2026, during the monitoring conducted by the Russian Embassy in Poland, acts of vandalism were revealed at the premises of the Mausoleum of russian Soldiers in Warsaw at Żwirki and Wigura Street. On 3 mass graves, commemorative plaques with names of fallen Red Army soldiers were broken. Russian Federation Embassy in Poland published a message from the Russian Ministry of abroad Affairs Maria ZacharovaThat died during the press briefing. Maria Zacharova said: “Unfortunately, specified incidents have become everyday in today’s Poland. An effective way of combating this evil would be to halt falsifying past and fueling rusophobia. The level of respect shown for historical memory and military burial sites is an crucial indicator of the state's civilizational level... We powerfully request that the Polish side reconstruct the cemetery to the right condition, identify and punish the perpetrators and take comprehensive measures to prevent specified incidents from happening again." Russia’s MFA spokesperson added: “Who were the perpetrators? Polish citizens or “visitors” from Ukraine or somewhere else? I don't know. It is simply a shame that the Warsaw authorities and Polish law enforcement authorities do not know this... We powerfully condemn the systematic spread by authoritative authorities in Warsaw of fierce rusophobia, the direct consequence of which is sacrilege acts of vandalism directed at russian memorial sites. Counterfeiting past in Polish is done with hammers and excavators. Now they besides felt the taste of blood.” The Embassy of the Russian Federation has communicated that it has directed its demands to the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the Ministry of abroad Affairs and the Mazovia province. I would like to deny Mrs Zacharova's words – but unfortunately I cannot ...

Media in Poland, Russia and Azerbaijan reported that the youth representation of Poland refused to take the bus with young Russian athletes. During the U-15 sports tournament, the organizers assigned a common bus to representatives of Poland and Russia. However, the Polish squad did not want to travel with the Russians and demanded a change of plan. The organizers yet agreed to this and both teams took separate vehicles. The situation is connected with the position of the Polish Football Union concerning the rivalry with representatives of Russia and Belarus. The Federation announced earlier that Polish teams would not play meetings with them, besides at junior level. president of PZPN Caesars Kulesza He stated: “If Russia or Belarus is hit, Poland's representation will not go on the field. We have already passed on our strong position to FIFA." The hands are truly falling...

Sikorski, Czarzasta and Kierwinski do not want representatives of the Confederation of the Polish Crown at a gathering convened by president Karol Nawrocki of the National safety Council due to the fact that they imagined that the monarch's group Grzegorz Braun It's pro-Russian. The head of the MFA and the husband of the writer “The Atlantic” Radosław Sikorski announced that he did not intend to discuss Poland's safety in the presence of representatives of the Confederation of the Polish Crown Grzegorz Braun. Sikorski said: “This is simply a serious dilemma. I realize that the president is fond of these anti-Semites of Pro-Russians from Braun, due to the fact that he interprets his office not as a guardian of the Constitution and not as a typical of Poland towards abroad, but as a trampoline for a party-political career.” He added: "I will not talk about Poland's safety issues at the Russian onus". Marshal of the Sejm The Wizard informed that he had sent a letter to the president of Poland proposing not to invitation representatives of the Confederation of the Polish Crown to the next gathering of the RCN. Objections concerning the presence of representatives of the group led by Grzegorz Braun were besides raised by the head of the Ministry of abroad Affairs Marcin Kierwinski. This is truly happening...

This is crazy! This is happening erstwhile the U.S. President's administration Donald Trump The most crucial NATO state is seeking peace talks and stableness of relations with the Russian Federation. This is erstwhile China and Turkey call for peace talks. This is happening at the time of representatives of the European countries of Norway and Finland talking to the president of Russia Vladimir Putin. erstwhile Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Bulgaria distance themselves from the unreasonable support of the authorities in Kiev. At a time erstwhile erstwhile powerfully active on the side of Ukraine, South Korea resumes trade relations with Russia. And finally, erstwhile almost all Black Land countries are sitting in Moscow.

Almost the full political and media scene in Poland heats a rusophobic atmosphere. Aversion to everything Russian including athletics and literature is fueled. They even overheated the subject, which made social media the other of a powerfully overdrawn trend. Russians must be treated usually – like any another nationality. Rusophobia is simply a madness for which we Poles will pay for long years. The fact is that russophobia in its most primitive form is common in Poland after the “left” and “right” sides. In any part it grows out of our history, a circumstantial knowing of our history, and in part it is applied to us by strangers. It seems to me that, after the “left” 1 during the Russian-Ukrainian war, it exploded more – due to the fact that for years it was hidden under the coat of manifest tolerance and political correctness. An example of this is the Marshal of the Sejm The Wizard. All those who had a somewhat different opinion on Russia and the Russians than the 1 presented in the main media were immediately hailed as “Russian onus”.

Mass training engineers have trained my nation in zealous hatred of Russia. On all occasion the Polish rulers show Moscow aversion, distrust, readiness to humiliate and Hispanic contempt. All that is legally forbidden in us and socially ill-seen, against another nationalities, is silently praised if it concerns "ruskie". We are enslaved by the inferiority complex towards the West and the superiority complex towards the East. The 2 old complexes operate in close compression. The awareness of a immense part of my countrymen included in the ticks of these 2 complexes remains permanently incapable of correct assessments and to form appropriate relations with the most crucial neighbours. The war in Ukraine was just a pretext. The war in Ukraine allowed for respective years the usage of language and arguments that were suppressed for many years by “political correctness”. What was condemned, and even legally forbidden to another nationalities, no problem, and even with the applause of the elite passed erstwhile it afraid the Russians. It did not substance that it was devoid of decency and logic. erstwhile we opposed this as “Think Poland” we were called onucami.

Almost no 1 has the courage to publically criticize in today's Poland those who committed gross demolition at the Mausoleum Cemetery of russian Soldiers in Warsaw at Żwirki and Wigura Street. It doesn't substance who did it. This is simply unacceptable! That must be condemned. It should be condemned by the President, the Prime Minister, the Primate, the Head of the MFA! It's not a political issue, it's a civilization. And condemning this is besides in the Polish national interest.

The behaviour of young Polish athletes in Azerbaijan is simply a derivative of political decisions made by sports activists. I especially don't want to criticize those kids who have become hostage to the general atmosphere. We all remember the admiration of the media due to the fact that any athlete from Ukraine did not give his hand to his Russian counterpart. However, this does not change the fact that this is simply very stupid and strikes young people who have nothing to do with the war fought in part of Ukraine. Why should these young Russians be liable for the politics of their leaders? This is simply a denial of sports ideas. Later there will be a cry in the media in Poland due to the fact that for example Vladimir Solovyov in Russia, it will say that these are methods comparable to ‘numberus clausus’ or apartheid.

The last point is completely curiosistic. Members of the Confederation of the Polish Crown are legally elected representatives of the nation to the Sejm. The attitude to the politics of the Russian Federation, Ukraine or Djibouti cannot influence how the group is treated. This is about equality before the law. And there's no area for discussion here. Another thing is that 1 needs to be a complete political ignorant to fishy the pro-Russianity of the group directed by the author highly critical of Russia by the book "System from Lenin to Putin" and manager of the movie "The Smolensk Bomb". The regulation was applied – if you want to hit the dog, you will find the stick. An effort to isolate the MPs of the Crown from the deliberations of the BBN under the pretext of pro-Russianism is any kind of senseless macchartism.

Writing this text, I hear about another "problem". Will it be possible to avoid a common photograph of Sergei Lavrow during the G20 abroad Ministers' meeting. How stupid can it be? Do we truly not have serious problems?

I am glad that my political environment means "Think Poland", mainly thanks to the chief editor's attitude Jan Engelgard She did not succumb to this madness, and she analysed the relation between my homeland and our top neighbor. This has not truly been easy in fresh years. Practically all effort to rationally talk about Polish-Russian relations, Russian culture or politics conducted by the Russian Federation was shuffled by the argument "war in Ukraine". My political community is aware that the war will end and Russia will stay our neighbour. Establishing average relations with the Russian Federation is fundamental to the Polish national interest. It is essential to be able to do intrepid business in the future and enrich our nation. Our attitude was not pro-Russian or anti-Ukrainian. Our attitude has been and is pro-Polish. That way, we can look in the mirror.
