Lech Wałęsa expresses ‘horror and distaste’ at Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy

From the article:

The “atmosphere in the Oval Office reminded us of that which we remember well from interrogations” by Poland’s communist secret services and regime courts, the signatories said.

“The prosecutors and the judges, working on behalf of the omnipotent Communist party police, also told us that they held all the cards, and we held none,” they said.

“We are shocked that you treated Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the same way,” they said.

The full letter machine translated from Polish:

Signed by Wałęsa and more than 30 former Polish political prisoners held during the communist era.
