Polish President Meets with Polish Orthodox Metropolitan
President Bronislaw Komorowski of Poland has met with Metropolitan Sawa (Hrycuniak) of Warsaw and other clergy of the Polish Orthodox Church. During the meeting President Komorowski said there must be room in Poland for tolerance and mutual respect between Poles and the country's ethnic and religious minorities.
In the distant past Poland (then the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth) was a bastion of religious tolerance and political freedom (for the time) in Europe, but following the restoration of Polish independence in the early 1900s the state at times fiercely persecuted its non-Polish and non-Roman Catholic minorities.
