He and former Polish political prisoners voiced “horror and disgust” at President Trump’s scolding of President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine last week, saying it reminded them of encounters with bullying Communist-era officials.

Former Polish President Lech Walesa, who won the Nobel prize for pro-democracy efforts, critically panned Trump's treatment of Zelenskyy at the White House.

Lech Walesa, the former Polish president and Solidarity trade union leader who played a leading role in the fall of Communism, signed a letter to U.S. President Donald Trump expressing "horror" at his argument with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Lech Walesa and dozens of other former political prisoners in Poland have written a letter to President Trump, stating they found his behavior toward Zelensky offensive.

Nobel Peace Prize-winner Lech Walesa posted the letter, which was signed by 39 Polish former political prisoners, on Facebook on Monday.
