Radosław Sikorski on the exhumation of Volhynia massacre victims: During the radio interview, Poland's Foreign Minister reminded listeners that during his visit to Kyiv on September 13, he received assurances that "the matter will be resolved." He emphasized, "We want this not to trouble Ukraine, but to ensure Polish-Ukrainian reconciliation is free of this sensitive issue".
Dispute with Volodymyr Zelensky: In the program, Minister Sikorski was asked whether the atmosphere during his September meeting with President Zelensky was indeed tense. "I can certainly be firm when necessary. We will judge by the results," Sikorski responded evasively. When pressed again about the argument, after a brief pause, he repeated, "We will judge by the results."
Ukrainian Allegations: It should be noted that shortly after Sikorski's visit to Kyiv, journalist Witold Jurasz from Onet reported that there was indeed a dispute during the meeting with President Zelensky. Zelensky allegedly accused Poland of not supporting Ukraine enough in its EU accession talks and claimed that Poland should provide more military equipment. Tensions reportedly escalated further when Sikorski brought up the subject of Volhynia.
National Consensus: Minister Sikorski emphasized that the exhumation of Volhynia massacre victims is being advocated by political representatives from all sides of the Polish political spectrum. He mentioned the efforts of President Andrzej Duda, Sejm Speaker Szymon Hołownia, and Deputy Prime Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. "I hope that this Christian duty will simply be fulfilled" - Poland's Foreign Minister reiterated.
