'War' against monuments in Poland provokes aggravation in relations with Russia

The Polish authorities' actions aimed against Soviet monuments provoke a further aggravation of the relations with Russia, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Thursday, Sputnik reports.

The Sejm, or lower house of Poland's parliament, adopted amendments earlier Thursday to the so-called de-communization law stipulating the demolition of almost 500 Soviet-era monuments in the country.

"Those who continue the campaign of 'war' against monuments should realize that they are provoking further aggravation in Russian-Polish relations," the Russian ministry said.
