  1. Question mr President. Talking about monuments and education. I am originally from Poland. My grandfather was a victim of what happened in Ukraine during and after WWII, and I am not talking about Germans. All his life he used to long for Lviv. Was there ever any mention of that in Ukrainian education? are there any memorials of the victims? I never mentioned that to my Ukrainian friends, but when once over a diner I asked about it she seamed quite oblivious. Moreover recently I watched a short BBC documentary about Majdan. There was a a young nationalist claiming a fight against imperialist and among others he mentioned Poland. WTF? Can anyone please explain, this is beyond the scope of the history I ever knew. I am authentically interested in that side of the story, maybe I was indoctrinated into believing only some part of it. I know that when I learned Swedish I learned Polish - Swedish History from their perspective and it was quite a different picture. Today many Pols wish Poland would stay a part of Sweden, honestly even I do. I am all for Ukraine, History belongs in forgotten books, future is where we are living now.

  2. I am from Poland, I met many Hungarians, all of them in another countries, I used to work with them. Their language is really fkdup, but all of them good people, never had any problem. I never met a bad Hungarian. Much fewer ego issues than for example Russians, of which even those with lower status often talk like lunatics. I never met the wealthy Hungarians, so for now I blame Hungarian Politics on Orban. Even when it comes to Poland, I am against the way Politics is done, even worse, my father is in favor of it, so I kind of understand the situation of Hungarians. This is not people choosing here, this are a few dudes who decided to take their choices away from the people who are playing this game.

  3.  @r_z1  I complain about how politics is done, not what it is about. I spend over a year in Sweden, and even as a foreigner, just taking part in public assemblies I managed to be invited to visit Riksdag two times with different parties. I spent years in Poland participating in similar assemblies as a not associated citizen. Not a handshake, mistrust and general ignorance. If you don't show up with a bunch of bullies, insult your opponents and push them off the cliff, all your efforts will be flushed down the toilet. This is exactly who those people at the top are.
