All the expectations fell through, and diplomatic efforts have come to be replaced by brutal violence. The attack by the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine meets with opposition and the most far-reaching indignation on our part. Principles and commitments have been trampled, international law breached. This act of violence is deserving of resolute condemnation. We speak out against this aggression, we stand on the side of its victims, and we sympathize with sovereign Ukraine. The Polish Academy of Sciences shares the most far-reaching fears of the international community, at the same time retaining hope for the aggression to be halted and peace restored.
