Sellin Ahead of Tomorrow's Meeting with Dulkiewicz: I Am Open and Will Propose Cooperation on Westerplatte

The Mayor wished to meet, so I am of course open to such a meeting. I regret that it is so late, because I asked the Mayor back in January, when she took office as Mayor of Gdańsk after the tragic death of Paweł Adamowicz, for such meetings regarding Westerplatte. I reminded her several times that I wanted to discuss this – there was no response. Only now has the Mayor decided it is necessary to talk about it, when a group of MPs submitted a bill to regulate the ownership of the Westerplatte area, in order to be able to build the Westerplatte Museum there, which has been our dream for several years now. But of course, I am open to cooperation and will propose this cooperation to the Mayor,” stated Deputy Minister of Culture Jarosław Sellin in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet.

We are building the Westerplatte Museum, an outdoor, good Westerplatte Museum, which will attract tourists from home and abroad, and I wish for the city to also cooperate with us, for city representatives to be part of some committee that will refine, for example, the concept of this museum. The concept exists, but there are still various details that can be discussed,” he added.
