During a joint briefing, Sikorski stated that the Polish side is mobilizing its own institutions, such as the Institute of National Remembrance, "to be responsive to Ukrainian demands."
Later, Polish Foreign Ministry representative Pawel Wronski added that the "symbolic decision" pertains to lifting the moratorium on the search and exhumation of the remains of Polish victims of the Volhynia tragedy, which has been in effect since 2017.
"Ukraine will not block the exhumation of the victims of the Volhynia tragedy... I hope that this time there will be no obstacles. This is a prerequisite for the complete reconciliation of our nations, which is so necessary in this dramatic moment of our shared history," – wrote Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on social media platform X.
Exhumation work may begin in the spring of 2025.
