"The Constitution of Poland was a manifestation of the aspiration for justice, which unites our countries and the entire European community," Ukrainian head of state added.
3rd May Constitution Day is very important for Poland, as this document equalized the rights of certain segments of the population, divided power into legislative, executive and judicial, as well as became the basis of Polish democracy. It's been highly valued by the Polish people ever since.
To mark the anniversary, President of Poland Andrzej Duda invited the leaders of four friendly states for observances to Warsaw: President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Estonia Kersti Kaljulaid, President of Lithuania Gitanas Nausėda and President of Latvia Egils Levits.
The heads of the five state signed a joint declaration in which they expressed the conviction "that the prosperity of our common heritage and common home, rooted in the European civilization, demands that, just like home, also Europe be built on the basis of fundamental values and principles".
