News / Can Russia be a good partner for Poland? [42]

Poland should seek to try to be a good neighbour and maintain basic cordial relations with Russia.

However, beyond that Poland should try to minimise it's involvement with Russia. Russia seems to be a mafia state and Putin is a dictator who cannot hang on to power indefinitely.

When he loses power I think Russian politics and economics will become chaotic. Organised criminal elements will gain greater power and influence than they already have.

This is a great pity as an open, stable and law-abiding Russia would probably be of great benefit to Poland economically.

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4501]

Merged thread:
Meaning of last name

Hi,

I am very curious about my polish history. My mother came from Piwniczna in Southern Poland and my father came from Szalsza near Gliwice. My mother's maiden name was Dziubakowska and I am in touch with many relatives on that side. My surname is Kytzia, but I believe it should be spelled Kycia and I was wondering what this meant in Polish.

Thank you for any information !
