Walesa Ukraine conflict

During a visit in Naples, Italy to receive the “People for Peace and Culture” award at the Naples Institute of Southern Culture, former Polish president Lech Walesa expressed his dissaproval for renewing sanctions against Russia. As Ansa reports, Walesa stated that the sanctions had gravely affected the Russian nation and he wished that they would be repealed. He stressed, however, that he did not feel experienced enough to advise on this matter, and recommended that a group of 20 experts be formed to evaluate the efficacy of the sanctions as well as their possible consequences.
