During the ceremony in front of the Presidential Palace, the president referred to the situation in Ukraine. He reminded that during the war on the war “prosperity often turned into ruins”.
– Not only in the literal sense of their burned houses, companies, workplaces, their property, but very often the ruins remained from their families – noted the president. – Then, when everyone or when many expensive hearts were killed on the battlefield or treacherously murdered. Brutally, in a way that resembles the most terrible history cards – he added.
“This is a great commitment”
As the president said, in a situation of attack on Poland, which cannot be repelled, “no one will remember the names of ordinary soldiers or simple officers.”
– But the names of the generals will be remembered. For long decades. And sometimes even for centuries.

In view of the memory and in the face of the future of your families – said the president, turning to the generals.
