Polish president supports changes in Ukrainian law, against EURO 2012 boycott

Poland's president appealed on Wednesday to all political forces in Ukraine for changes in Ukrainian laws that would make sentencing political activity on the basis of criminal law impossible, and spoke out against the boycott of Ukraine and EURO 2012 in Ukraine. Poland and Ukraine are co-hosting the Euro-2012 football tournament starting on June 8. "A political battle should not spoil a Polish-Ukrainian sports event," the Polish president said.
