...hopeful perspective comes to pass, the evolving reconciliation between the Poles and the Russians will be another milestone in the process of a larger European accommodation. It is only in recent years that a genuine and socially far-reaching reconciliation between Poland and Germany - bitter enemies in World War II - took place. And it is only a matter of decades since something similar happened between the Germans and the French.
