October 11, Pozirk<\/em>. <\/strong>Belarusian opposition leader \u015aviat\u0142ana Cichano\u016dskaja in charge of the opposition transition cabinet awarded Polish diplomat Artur Michalski a medal for promoting Belarusian-Polish relations and supporting democracy in Belarus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOn behalf of all Belarusians, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Ambassador Artur Michalski for his unwavering support and sincere friendship,\u201d her press office quoted her as saying at an award event in Vilnius yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Thanks to you, among others, Poland has become a safe haven for thousands of Belarusians in the most difficult times. You have always stood with us, defending our common values of freedom and dignity,\u201d the politician said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michalski’s contribution to strengthening the friendship between Belarus and Poland \u201cwill remain invaluable,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After serving as Polish Ambassador to Belarus from 2018 to 2023, Michalski was appointed the Polish foreign ministry\u2019s envoy for cooperation with Belarusian pro-democracy forces. In late September, a Minsk judge blacklisted his X account as extremist content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
