A STATEMENT by RUCH NARODOWY

In connection to information published on 16 November 2011 by the Polish Press Agency (PAP) about the alleged establishment of National Movement (Ruch Narodowy) by   two   organizations Młodzież Wszechpolska and ONR [vide: http://fakty.interia.pl/polska/news/mlodziez-wszechpolska-i-onr-stworza-ruch-narodowy,1722311], we are stating the following:

It is not true that National Movement (Ruch Narodowy) is about to be established in Poland. An organization named Ruch Narodowy exists for nearly 30 years. Ruch Narodowy is a political movement. It is not a registered entity. It was established in 1982 from the transformation of Independent Political Group (Niezależna Grupa Polityczna), which was founded in 1978 by an opposition group working since 1973 [http://www.RuchNarodowy.pl/]. Under this name Ruch Narodowy was persecuted by the communist regime ["The legal repressions against Ruch Narodowy beginning with arrests in June and July 1983", http://www.ruchnarodowy.pl/MU_023.html].
