Poland strips Zelensky of country's highest honour, escalating World War II-era row
Poland's nationalist President Karol Nawrocki said Friday that he was revoking the country's highest award from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after he infuriated Warsaw by naming a Ukrainian unit after a World War II insurgent militia that massacred Poles.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk had earlier appealed to both nations "not to waste" solidarity between allies amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
