 The Consul General of Poland in Lviv Jaroslaw Drozd said that he was watching the developments anxiously:

   – Since our office is located in Lviv, I am well aware of the situation in that city, every day I see the mood of people, watch the news in the media. I am concerned about radicalization of the conflict, more frequent calls for violence – it is unacceptable.

   The Consul General also reminded that the prime ministers of the Visegrad countries – the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia – were in favor of a democratic and peaceful resolution of the situation in Ukraine, as a further development of the state is possible only with stabilization of the situation. Representatives of the "Visegrad Four" also voiced the need for the introduction of a visa-free regime with Ukraine, and expressed willingness to finance projects of civil society development in Ukraine.

– Indeed, the situation in the region is not the same as in most western regions of the country. We also have rallies and peaceful assemblies – people actively express their citizenship. Moreover, the opposition tent camp, surrounded by barricades, is located just opposite the entrance to the building of the regional administration. I reiterate: there is no pressure on protesters in the region. We are willing to compromise and support the peaceful resolution of any conflicts – Oleksandr Ledyda summed up (the press center of the RSA informed).
