On the 9th May Red Square in Moscow traditionally will hold celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany. President Bronis³aw Komorowski was invited to the ceremony, however, because of the annexation of the Crimea and Russia's support for separatists in Ukraine he doesn’t intend to participate in them. His decision is supported by majority of the Poles (65%) but one in five (22%) think that the president should attend the celebrations.

President Komorowski’s resignation from attendance in Moscow celebrations finds greatest understanding among respondents better orientated in public matters: with the highest education levels, with clear political views and due to their age having greater life experience, but being for a shorter period of time than older generations under communist Poland propaganda.

More on that issue can be found in the CBOS report in Polish.
