Lech Walesa, the esteemed former Polish President and Nobel Peace Prize winner, has publicly voiced his discontent with U.S. President Donald Trump. This comes following a contentious interaction between President Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy at the White House.

Walesa's reaction was recorded in a letter where he detailed his "horror and distaste" over the proceedings. According to a social media post, which Walesa shared on Monday, the letter was addressed directly to President Trump.

The document was not just a solo effort by Walesa. It carries additional weight, having been co-signed by other former Polish political prisoners, strengthening the shared sentiment against the U.S. President's actions.
