Zakharova responds to Nawrocki: Poland owes its existence to Stalin

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova hit back at Polish President Karol Nawrocki, accusing him of "clinical Russophobia." She claimed that Poland owes its very existence to Stalin, and mocked a 2019 incident in which Nawrocki, then a museum director, ordered musicians to stop playing a Soviet song. The remarks follow Nawrocki's statements that drew sharp reactions in Russia.
