Two parades, two cities — Poland's Armed Forces Day split by political divide
On Poland's Armed Forces Day on 15 August, the traditional land parade was held in Warsaw with President Duda, while a naval parade took place in Gdynia hosted by Prime Minister Tusk — with no joint ceremony. Politicians from the ruling coalition and opposition did not share a stage, drawing criticism. The split celebrations coincided with a broader debate about citizens funding defence while leaders cannot unite even for a national holiday.
