Russia's relations with Poland are at their worst since the Second World War, the Russian ambassador to Poland, Sergey Andreyev, said in an interview with Russian portal RBK.

The ambassador's discussion focused on Polish-Russian relations in context of the conflict over the historic truth of the Second World War.

Since the conflict started, Russia has accused Poland of co-responsibility for the outbreak of the war, anti-Semitism, and lack of appreciation for the Red Army which “liberated” Poland from Germany Nazi occupation.

The Russian side also claims that it was not the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact, where Germany and the Soviet Union jointly decided to invade Poland and split its territory, but instead it was the Munich Agreement which directly led to the global conflict.

Andreyev accused Russia’s opponents of believing that “because relations with Russia are bad today, then Russia's role in history should also be painted in a negative light only.” He added that the goal of such actions is to weaken Russia’s position on the international arena.
