Statement by the All-Polish Youth on the impact of rockets on the territory of the Republic of Poland

The war in Ukraine, which has been taking place since 24 February, is simply a threat to the safety of all countries of Central and east Europe and their citizens. On 15 November there was an detonation in Przewodów in the territory of Hrubieszowski, which led to the death of 2 Polish citizens.

From the very beginning, the youth of All Poland powerfully condemns the Russian attack on Ukraine. Ukraine is simply a sovereign state and its independency is simply a warrant of the safety of the Republic of Poland. Conscious of the threats and accidental tragedies that may affect countries not straight active in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, we cannot pass distant in the face of the violation of the territory of the Republic of Poland and the death of its 2 citizens.

After the detonation in the Wire, there was news chaos. Most of the news reached Polish citizens from abroad sources, while the president of Poland and the Prime Minister were silent. The situation has shown unacceptable State delays in the strategical area of infosphere.

Today, Polish services presume that the accident in the territory of Hrubieszowski is the consequence of attempts to shoot down Russian missiles by the Ukrainian army. Since the information was provided, it has not been possible to see the slightest indication of a change in the direction of Polish policy towards the ongoing war. Thus, Ukrainian declarations under the leadership of its president Volodymyr Zelenski are considered premature and arrogant towards the country and the Polish people supporting it on a immense scale. In the face of the Ukrainian side, Polish diplomacy should request an open apology and pay appropriate compensation to families of victims of this unfortunate incident, which will prevent the increase in the sense of injustice and harm on the part of all Poles.

The issue must be an absolute precedence for the Polish government and diplomacy. Only the fast and clear position of the Polish authorities will cut off all speculation and bring society out of a sense of danger. This is so crucial that Russian propaganda will surely begin to sale absurd messages about a deliberate hit in order to drag Poland into war with Russia. Modern methods of armed combat will be accompanied by specified incidents, which unfortunately cannot be effectively addressed, with even the most modern safety measures available.

The task of the Polish authorities is to avoid at all costs the anticipation of getting active in armed actions within the framework of the ongoing conflict and wise continuation of modernization of the Polish army. The current crisis requires the authorities to make transparent communications and to quit their attempts to conceal the facts. Only the trust of Poles in the state as an institution standing on defender of national interest, avoiding artificial media propaganda game will let us to last this hard time.

We offer our deepest condolences to the families of the victims of the tragic accident in Więwo. May the good Lord bring you peace.

General Board of the All-Polish Youth
