July 11 will become the National Day of Remembrance of Poles – Victims of Genocide committed by the OUN and UPA in the east territories of the Second Polish Republic. The legislature adopted the bill unanimously – as many as 88 senators voted in favor, only 1 was against. This is simply a symbolic step that aims to commemorate 1 of the most tragic pages in the past of Poland. Will the fresh vacation be a day off from work?
