Yo, big moves in Poznań this week. The Russian Consulate? Packed up and peaced out by November’s end, and honestly, who’s sad to see them go? Partia Razem is throwing an official “don’t-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-way-out” bash this Saturday at 1 PM, right outside 53A Bukowska Street. It’s all about showing solidarity with Ukraine and celebrating the city shutting down Russia’s local hangout.
Pull up with your Polish and Ukrainian flags and bring the good vibes—organizers are clear this is a peaceful show of support, no hate or chaos needed. They’re calling it an anti-aggression and pro-sovereignty moment, and you already know Poznań shows up for what’s right.
Why’s This Happening?
Radosław Sikorski, Poland’s Foreign Affairs boss, made the call to kick the consulate out. The building’s future is still up in the air, but Razem Poznań already has a dope idea: turning it into a Polish-Ukrainian Friendship Center. Think cultural events, integration programs, and a proper space to celebrate both communities’ vibes.
What’s Next?
While a lot of us are saying “see ya never” to the consulate, some are wondering what’s really next for this space. Will Poznań pull off the cultural center plan, or will the building just sit there gathering dust? Let us know what you think. Is this the power move Poznań needed, or should the city have played it differently? 👇
