The Prime Minister [of Poland] referred to the speech of US President Barack Obama, who used the phrase “Polish death camp” during the Tuesday ceremony of awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Jan Karski. - We expect that America, in connection with this very statement, will join our efforts and help us eradicate such false and unjust phrases once and for all - said the head of the government.
- We always react in the same way to ignorance, lack of knowledge and ill will which lead to the distortion of history. Such phrases are especially painful for Poland - Europe’s most affected country by World War II - underlined Donald Tusk.
“The power under the constitution will always be in the people. It is entrusted for certain defined purposes, and for a certain limited period, to representatives of their own choosing; and whenever it is executed contrary to their interest, or not agreeable to their wishes, their servants can and undoubtedly will, be recalled.”
