President Kaczyński hailed as hero in Georgia

President Lech Kaczyński visited Georgia yesterday where he participated in the country's independence day celebrations. "Poland will continue to support Georgia in its conflict with Russia and its bid to join NATO," declared Kaczyński adding that, "Nobody can threaten the historical territory of Georgia."

The Polish President was very warmly accepted by the representatives of the Georgian government. "If there will be a hero for Georgia in the future, this will definitely be Lech Kaczyński, a great friend of our country," said Georgia's President Mikhail Saakashvili.

Both leaders discussed Georgia's situation on the European political arena and want European Union states to officially declare Russia's activities in Abkhazia as illegal.

Germany and France are against such a move, however, President Kaczyński hopes to convince the representatives of the two countries to his opinion during the Polish-French summit which is to begin in Warsaw on Wednesday.
