During a visit to Warsaw on Wednesday, Olha Herasymiuk said: “I don’t know if anyone in Europe has done more than you.”
She added: “Thanks to you, millions of our citizens who have found refuge in Poland are hearing their mother tongue and feeling your friendship.”
She told the Polish public broadcaster: “It’s especially important that Ukrainian children are able to listen to Ukrainian tales and programmes in their native language. You are working to maintain their Ukrainian identity while they stay in Poland, which is very valuable.”
“You are doing a lot of good for us, for which we give special thanks to Polish Radio,” Herasymiuk said.
