Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk received positive signals from current and former Ukrainian high-ranking officials - in particular from President Viktor Yushchenko, who addressed him with a sincere letter, but he expects Kyiv to take the first step towards de-escalation in Polish-Ukrainian relations, Polsat News quotes the politician as saying. But he didn't say anything specific..

“We expect Ukraine to take the first step after this unfortunate decision by President Zelensky,” Tusk said, which suggests that Warsaw is still waiting for the decision to retract the decision to assign the honorary name “named after the Heroes of the UPA” to the Special Forces Special Forces unit.. — It would be good to hear a very clear signal from Kyiv. They're trying, but we still want to hear it clearly and confidently."

Let us recall that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said that the head of the OP Kirill Budanov and his deputy Sergei Kislitsa immediately after the start of the scandal with Poland went to Warsaw to convey Ukraine’s position and avoid conflict, but the president already understood that this was impossible, because electoral motives were behind the decision to deprive him of the Order of the White Eagle. He warned Polish leader Karol Nawrocki that trying to raise his own ratings by inciting hatred towards Ukrainians is a bad story, “what Orban did.”.

The Polish leader, as expected, denied Zelensky’s accusations, noting that the Poles know how much harm Ukrainian nationalists have caused them and their children.
