Foreign Minister of Ukraine Pavlo Klimkin has expressed gratitude to the Polish Sejm for supporting the draft resolution with an appeal to the Russian Federation to release Ukrainian political prisoners.

"I am sincerely grateful to the Sejm of the Republic of Poland for the adoption of the resolution calling on Russia to release Ukrainian political prisoners, including #FreeSentsov. With such partners as Poland, we are stronger and more solid in protecting the values and lives of innocent people #SaveOlegSentsov," the foreign minister wrote on Twitter on Friday.
