On 4 July 2014, Professor Norman Davies received from President Bronisław Komorowski an act granting him the Polish citizenship. The ceremony took place at the Belvedere Palace in Warsaw.
“You’re an unusual Pole. I'm glad that I can grant you the Polish citizenship, the citizenship of a country that with difficulty overcame a system separating us from the Western world, that for 25 years has consistently been trying to establish severed, strained ties linking us with the Western world” – said President Komorowski during Friday’s ceremony at the Belvedere.
