Participants besides raised the slogans of opposition to violations of the integrity of Polish borders, mass migration and expressed solidarity with soldiers of the Polish army.
There was besides a disapproval of the decision of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage to cancel the construction task of the Warsaw conflict monument, which has been under improvement since 2020.

Stopping construction is simply a blow to Polish historical memory, which we cannot tolerate.
