“Where are our Christian values that built the foundations of the Republic, and why must we witness and endure the pressure of a prosthesis of Christian values in the form of foreign ideologies imposed on Polish schools and our education system? This is un-Polish, and the President of Poland will never allow us to once again become the peacock and parrot of nations, mindlessly repeating whatever comes from the West. I say this as a supporter of Poland in the EU, but above all as someone who says: ‘Poland first, Poles first,’” said today, during his speech marking the National Independence Day, the President of the Republic of Poland, Karol Nawrocki.
During his address at Piłsudski Square in Warsaw, President Karol Nawrocki asked “what we will do today for Polish freedom and sovereignty.”
“Will we fulfil the pledges and the great success of Polish independence and sovereignty, and will the 21st century be the century in which we remain free and independent? (…) Where is our identity? Where are our Christian values that built the foundations of the Republic, and why must we witness and endure the pressure of a prosthesis of Christian values in the form of foreign ideologies imposed on Polish schools and our education system? This is un-Polish, and the President of Poland will never allow us to once again become the peacock and parrot of nations, mindlessly repeating whatever comes from the West. I say this as a supporter of Poland in the EU, but above all as someone who says: ‘Poland first, Poles first,’” said the President of the Republic of Poland.
“A free, independent, and sovereign Poland is our obligation, and that is what this holiday is about,” he added.
The President asked what message we want to convey today to those “who brought us independence through their blood, effort, and labor,” when “we see that some Polish politicians are ready to hand over, piece by piece, Polish freedom, independence, and sovereignty to foreign institutions, tribunals, and EU agencies.” – “That blood, that sacrifice, that labor – and yet we still fail to understand that Poland is free and independent? It is no longer a colony,” emphasized Karol Nawrocki.
