A Polish politician sent aid to the Russian army and apologised to the Russian people
This is mentioned in Krzysztof Tolwiński’s Facebook post and his YouTube video.
Krzysztof Tolwiński published a post entitled ‘Polish medical aid for Russian soldiers’. In it, he stated that the Front party is providing medical aid to Russian military personnel.
In a video message, the politician showed first-aid kits and said that the aid was intended for Russian soldiers. According to the Belarusian publication Most Media, this involved 20 first-aid kits, which Tolwiński asked to be passed on to the Russian side via the Belarusian politician Oleg Haidukevich.
What he said about Russian troops
In his address, Tolvinsky expressed the hope that Russian soldiers would not have to use this aid. At the same time, he stated that they could count on it if necessary.
The politician also described this move as a gesture of dissent against the official Warsaw line on Russia’s war against Ukraine.
In his post, Tolvinsky criticised the Polish state and a significant section of Polish society for supporting Ukraine. He described Russia’s war against Ukraine as a “fratricidal conflict between Ukrainians and Russians”.
To whom did he apologise?
Tolwinski also publicly apologised to Russians and Belarusians. In his post, he stated that he was apologising for the actions of the Polish state and its policy towards Russia and Belarus.
Separately, he criticised the supply of weapons to Ukraine and stated that the Polish authorities are participating in a policy directed against Russia.
Who is Krzysztof Tolwiński
Krzysztof Tolwiński is a Polish politician, a former member of the Sejm and a former Deputy Minister of State Assets of Poland. He currently leads the Front party.
The Polish media have previously reported on numerous occasions about the pro-Russian stance of Tolwiński and his party. In particular, Interia reported that in 2024, representatives of Front assisted the Russian ambassador to Poland, Sergei Andreyev, during a wreath-laying ceremony in Warsaw.
In 2026, Rzeczpospolita reported that Tolwinski had registered a public gathering for 9 May — a date that Russia uses as one of its key state and propaganda holidays.
The Polish politician’s public statement about assisting the Russian military caused a stir given Poland’s official position. Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Warsaw has remained one of Ukraine’s key partners, providing military, humanitarian and political support, as well as taking in millions of Ukrainians.
Tolwiński’s statement regarding aid to the Russian armed forces and his apology to the Russians appears to be a demonstrative political gesture running counter to the Polish government’s policy.
At the same time, this is not about Poland’s position as a state, but about the actions of an individual politician and his party, which Polish and Belarusian independent media describe as pro-Russian.
