00:00 So the anniversary of martial law must be a lesson for us how not to solve Polish issues.
00:10 Fortunately, we have beautiful examples of peace and harmony in the latest history of solving conflicts.
00:17 They must forever be a contract and a electoral card.
00:23 However, we must pass on the memory of the victims and the lesson of martial law to the next generations.
00:30 I have been here every year since the time when the Solidarity Cross was established here.
00:37 The time of the anniversary of martial law and the group of younger participants is now for the older ones, and soon for the oldest.
00:47 That is why I am happy to see the presence of young people, to whom I appeal.
00:54 Remember, because memory creates our identity.
00:59 Remember that solidarity is never one against the other.
01:05 A year ago, here at the Stanisław Jach's Square, I told you about the designation of the Solidarity Cross.
01:15 I had the great pleasure of receiving another posthumous designation,
01:20 recognized by the President of the Republic of Poland.
01:24 In holy memory of Stanisław Jach, he was designated the Cross of the Officer Order of the Rebirth of Poland.
01:31 We meet not to celebrate, but to remember this day.
01:42 The black, sad day of the coup d'état, the day that started the crime of martial law.
01:48 Today, not at the twilight of the candles and the burning of the candles, but in the afternoon.
01:56 Also because, as the leader Bartnicki said, the presence of young people is important for us.
02:03 The presence of children is important for us.
02:06 Especially when they come with such beautiful, white-red umbrellas.
02:12 42 years have passed, and many of us remember this day well.
02:19 Those who could not find themselves in the cold winter Sunday morning due to the lack of television signal remember it.
02:34 Those who had to stand at the police stations,
02:39 at the SBI units, or at the internment centers, but also at the arrests, remember it more.
02:53 #Tag.
