Polish-Ukrainian reconciliation was one of the most significant events in Europe following the fall of communism. Its importance is comparable to the Franco-German reconciliation after World War II: just as the former served as a cornerstone for a united and peaceful Europe, the latter offered a chance to extend it further East. However, since the 2010s, relations between Poland and Ukraine have shown a deteriorating trend. In this year’s Leszek Kołakowski lecture, Professor Yaroslav Hrytsak, one of Ukraine’s leading modern historians, will address three critical questions: What went wrong, what could be mended, and what consequences might this have for the future of Europe amidst the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war? Dr Anna Wylegała will offer a commentary, focusing particularly on recent Polish politics and social attitudes.
