"This is not a normal situation, when the neighbors do not talk… We are standing for cooperation with Russia without preliminary conditions. We want to develop our economic cooperation on commercial terms, we have never intended to interfere with Russian internal policy and expect the same from the Russian side," Jan Parys said at the international economic forum in the Polish town of Krynica-Zdroj.
He added that Poland wanted to build relations with other states on the ground of mutual respect and noninterference in the internal affairs.
Relations between Moscow and Warsaw have been strained by a number of issues, including repeated cases of the demolition and dismantling of Soviet monuments in the country, alleged attempts by some Polish officials to distort history and belittle the contribution Soviet soldiers made to the victory over Nazism in World War II.
