    The world reads the first diplomatic dispatch of reborn Poland

    On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Poland regaining its independence, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs invited representatives from six countries on three continents to read a cable concerning the rebirth of the Polish State. The telegram signed by Józef Piłsudski and sent on November 16, 1918, was a symbolic document to announce that Poland is Independent after 123 years of partitions.

    In the video citizens of Japan, France, Germany, the United States, Great Britain and Italy read the most important telegram of the Second Republic of Poland.

    The cable said that Józef Piłsudski, Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Army, wishes to notify the governments and nations of the existence of an independent Polish state, encompassing all the territories of a reunified Poland. However, only in 1919 most European countries established diplomatic relations with Poland.
