„For me, this is an opportunity to personally thank you all, the entire Olympic Family, all those who co-create Polish sport, all those who for many years brought us the most positive emotions, thrills and pride. From my presidential point of view, what is important is that they promoted the Republic of Poland in international sports arenas. I thank you with all my heart”
