– As you know, yesterday afternoon the President addressed a letter to me requesting that Prime Minister Netanyahu be provided with safe passage and stay in Poland, in light of the International Criminal Court's decision. I want to state that we have been working for many days on a government resolution that will, on the one hand, guarantee safe stays for all guests interested in participating in the ceremonies at Auschwitz. For obvious reasons, this particularly applies to the representatives of the State of Israel, who, for understandable reasons, are more interested in these ceremonies than anyone else – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in conversation with journalists in the Sejm.

– The matter is delicate, of course. We have the ICC's verdict on one hand, and on the other hand, it has been obvious to me from the very beginning that the Prime Minister or President of Israel, or another representative of Israel, should have full rights and a sense of security and safety if they are visiting the Auschwitz concentration camp, especially on its anniversary. And that is why I asked both the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Foreign Affairs to prepare a resolution and work on it for a few days – he continued.

The resolution states that the government will ensure free and safe access and participation in the commemorations for the highest representatives of the State of Israel.

– The President was likely aware that the government was preparing such steps and, frankly speaking, it was enough to convince him through direct contact – the Prime Minister said.
