#MusicofPoland
Gaude Mater Polonia ("Rejoice, oh Mother Poland") is a polish song written in Latin dating back to the 13th century, that has functioned for years as an anthem for the Kingdom of Poland. It would often be used during royal coronations or after a won battle. Nowadays it's sung on some universities for the inauguration of the academic year.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjMnTo85S4A Whole Putin's speech on situation in Donbas and Ukraine you can listen to in english here. I've listened to it live and I must say nothing looks bright but still people of Poland and Ukraine should cling to their faith in peace and that there's the way to get around this. Now only Putin's move is to recognise Donbas and Luhansk People's Republic which could serve as satellite republics like Abkhazia and South Ossetia or could straight up annex the region. Still I recommend to listen to the whole video in which Putin denies right of ukrainian state to exist and Poland to have means of defending itself

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki gave his response already to start the sanctions

Vice-Prime Minister: There will be no new gas contracts with Russia! "The Yamal contract is ending, we do not plan to sign any more. We are putting into operation the Baltic Pipe, i.e. the gas pipeline connecting with Norway. Moreover, we have invested huge amounts of money to purchase deposits in Norway" also mr. Jacek Sasin added "I feel anxious about what will happen in Europe. As a historian, I see parallels - they are disturbing, similar to those preceding World War II. This does not mean that there will be such a hecatomb(destruction,disaster), but Europe has become more dangerous"

"We are not afraid of anyone or anything.
We will not give anything to anyone.
We are on our own land.
With us - the truth. Behind us is Ukraine.
The only goal is peace in Ukraine.
Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦"

Sorry for untranslated speech but it's not time for lessons it's time for peace! When I'll have the time I'll translate it but only thing I can say is that president of Ukraine Zelensky called out Putin for withdrawing from Minsk agreements and promises security of Ukraine's borders through diplomatic means. Peace 🙏

"Peace is a valuable and desirable thing. Our generation, which has shed its blood in several wars, surely deserves a period of peace. But peace, like almost everything in this world, has its price, high but definable. We in Poland do not recognize the conception of “peace at any price”. There is only one thing in the life of men, nations and States which is without price, and that is honour"
