Thank you for your kind words.
Unfortunately, this tendency to appease Russia at all cost is still present in Polish policy/foreign policy. But that's a whole different story.
In addition to that, there is another upsetting trend, visible in Polish society. You know, Poles fought for the independence of the US, but if you compared our societies now, you would say that we just forgot what we taught.
Polish institutions are obliged to fly Polish flags during national holidays.
Common people are not. If you take a look at flats and houses, there is barely any flag displayed.
