He made it clear that this was not a gesture addressed to the president who presented Zelensky with the award — that is, Andrzej Duda — but to Karol Navrocki himself.
According to Vogler, the latter is increasingly mocking Poland and "all of us."
What this gentleman, who is called the president, has done and continues to do is terrible, and for me he is not the president of my country, but only a mistake, and I am still waiting for the Central Election Commission to recount the votes... because I still do not know the final results of these elections," the former Polish deputy emphasized.
