Poland’s nationalist President Karol Nawrocki said Friday that he was revoking the country’s highest award from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, despite Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s attempts “not to waste” solidarity between allies amid the Russian invasion. Zelensky infuriated Warsaw earlier this month after he named a Ukrainian unit after a World War II insurgent army that massacred Poles.
