Poland — On an average winter day in this small city near the border with Germany
cars struggling to start in the cold and the clicking of high heels as women move dexterously over icy sidewalks
It’s also possible to hear something more unusual for this part of the world: American English
which residents jokingly say can drown out all other sounds
soldiers have been deploying to a forward operating station within walking distance of the historic town square
Residents say support for the Americans has never been higher
in light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February and lingering fears that the ongoing war will spill over into neighboring countries like theirs
many older people didn’t like it because they didn’t want things to change,” said Roksana Borcz
who works at a bowling alley in town that soldiers frequent
“But now I think they’re used to it and we feel safer because they are here.”
many soldiers say their work in Boleslawiec feels more important now than it did before the war
which has created a distinctive environment in which everyone remains hypervigilant despite not being in combat
“There’s still a lot of uncertainty,” 1st Infantry Division chaplain Lt
who provides religious services and counseling to troops at the outpost known as Camp Boles
While the location is a “very comfortable place to live” and nearly 400 miles from the border with Ukraine
West said Russia’s aggression remains at the front of everyone’s mind
the Army division moved its headquarters battalion to Camp Boles
forces in Poland and other countries on NATO’s eastern flank as part of Operation Atlantic Resolve
The mission began in 2014 in response to Russia’s initial invasion of Ukraine and has led to more training and exercise among allies
After the latest Kremlin aggression against Ukraine
boosted its military presence in central and Eastern Europe
The roughly 500 Americans living and working at Camp Boles
That means their experience differs greatly from a typical European deployment to a large garrison that can accommodate families and provide amenities that make life more familiar
soldiers live in one of several concrete dormitories
gym equipment and recreational facilities are inside tents
Polish lunch ladies serve various meat dishes at the base cafeteria
almost like eating at your grandmother’s but with more camouflage
Despite the restrictions — and the occasional fire alarm going off by mistake — most Americans seem to have few complaints about life in their Boleslawiec surroundings
“I feel a lot more at peace here than I did at my first deployment,” said Lt
who works in planning operations and previously supported Operation Atlantic Resolve in Romania
and the reason is that there are a lot more activities.”
Merino spoke to Stars and Stripes after belting out Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” during a karaoke performance in the Morale
Welfare and Recreation tent organized by the base American Red Cross office
the activities don’t fully alleviate geopolitical concerns
“You still feel it,” he said of the conflict in Ukraine
“Nobody knows what anyone from the other side is thinking
What the Army can control is its preparations for contingencies
and doing so is one of the main efforts of the 1st Infantry Division at Camp Boles
Officials at the site recently led a large command post exercise incorporating American units across Poland
as well as allied troops from Baltic countries
The drill simulated an attack inside NATO territory
and allies had to learn how to work together to repel it and restore sovereignty
In addition to honing technical and procedural skills
the soldiers established personal connections with allies
The intimacy of Camp Boles and of Boleslawiec in general means those bonds also are easily strengthened in everyday life
“We get invited to drink coffee and talk with the Polish commander on the base
We get invited to community events,” said 2nd Lt
who liaises with the Polish military and civilians to maintain the quality of life for U.S
One extreme example is a weekly excursion hosted by Wells’ interpreter
who takes a handful of troops to a nearby pool where they “polar plunge” into chilly water
the division’s band recently gave a Christmas concert in the town center
Soldiers are also regular patrons at many restaurants and bars in town
especially because alcohol is banned on the Polish base
“They are very loud when they spend time together
and this is not a common thing in Poland,” said Michal Czerniawski
who works for the Boleslawiec ceramic museum and sometimes mans the tourist information office in town
American voices and slang are becoming increasingly soothing
the more we question our own safety,” he said
“And the presence of the American Army and the American language works to calm us down a little bit.”

Any list of the best gifts from Poland will include cheese and vodka
being both artistically beautiful and functional in a kitchen
Traditional pottery styles with dot patterns of indigo blue are still painted by hand in small family-run workshops in Bolesławiec
A day trip to this hub of Polish pottery will allow you to find one-of-a-kind pieces that make amazing gifts – whether for yourself or your loved ones
Bolesławiec is a town in what used to be known as Silesia
was likely named for the Silings tribe: one of the many groups collectively known as the Vandals who occupied the area during Roman times
Silesian pottery was taken with the Vandals as they pushed into the Roman Empire
But the history of pottery in Bolesławiec extends further back than that
Natural clay deposits found near Bolesławiec have attracted people since prehistoric times
neolithic peoples lived in the region and their pottery is still a cultural marker for archaeologists
Bolesławiec was officially founded in the 1200s and has been part of many different nations including the Holy Roman Empire
The town and its pottery are still sometimes referred to by the German name Bunzlau
Bolesławiec is in the western part of Poland about an hour’s drive south of Zagan and makes a great day trip by car
Parking is easily available at the pottery workshops
Driving also makes it easy to transport and stash your hefty gifts while looking for treasures at the next store
The town is roughly three hours from Poznań or Łask
and about six hours from Redzikowo and the Baltic coast
There are plenty of overnight accommodations in town for those coming from further afield
Though the area around Bolesławiec is best known for its extensive pottery workshops
the scenic central square (Rynek) is worth visiting and a great place to grab a bite to eat
Bolesławiec pottery is stoneware made from local clay and usually formed in a mold
dipped in a clear glaze and fired again at a scorching 2200°F
Any pottery you buy in Bolesławiec will be hand-painted
You can check the bottom for a stamp with “Hand made in Poland” along with a signature or logo to verify authenticity
Gat 1 is the highest quality with no imperfections: food safe and usable in the oven
Gat 2 may have a slight painting error: food safe and usable in the oven
Gat 3 and Gat 4 may have cracks or glaze problems
so they can’t be heated but can still be used for food service and hand washed
Gat 5 is not food safe and should only be used decoratively
The oldest pottery in Bolesławiec was made of brown clay with a brown glaze
and this antique-style form can still be found in some shops today
come for the colorfully painted white clay pottery in the form of bowls
The most traditional painting style is the royal blue peacock pattern
Using white dots on blue became extremely popular as the pottery guild of the 1650s expanded its market toward the excessively wealthy royalty of Europe
other complementary colors like orange and yellow have been incorporated into the traditional dot painting patterns
There are plenty of other pottery patterns to choose from
Modern workshops have incorporated traditional floral designs
animal motifs and lots of different colors
A good selection of holiday-inspired items are also available
some places will offer “unikat” or unique pieces for higher prices
The patterns on these have been designed by an accomplished ceramics artist
Bolesławiec also has numerous ceramic (ceramika) stores with large stocks of pottery pieces from one or many of the local workshops
These are primarily located along road 297 north of town and on Zgorzelecka street to the west
Note that most of the stores and workshops are closed or have limited hours on Sundays
Polish pottery makes an excellent souvenir or gift
It is not only beautiful but also durable and useful
Being stationed in Europe gives you the chance to travel to the pottery hub of Bolesławiec and hand-pick your own special pieces of useable art

The Manufaktura Stone Pottery Factory in Bolesławiec
is blossoming thanks to the EU’s Free Trade Agreement with South Korea
boosting revenues and expanding its workforce from 10 to 213 in response to surging demand from South Korea
When the agreement came into force in 2011
and Manufaktura’s products became much more competitive on the South Korean market
One third of Manufaktura’s products are now exported to South Korea
Manufaktura is not the only pottery factory in Bolesławiec to benefit
famous for deposits of white-burning clays unique to the region
is home to numerous businesses creating high quality clays
Town council spokeswoman Agnieszka Gergont believes that the trade agreement with South Korea is also playing an important role in Bolesławiec’s development
the town boasts a record low unemployment rate – down from 27 percent ten years ago to 4.8 percent today
Bolesławiec now has a growing appetite for trade with other Asian economies
“We’re waiting for the trade agreement with Japan,” says Manufaktura CEO Paweł Zwierz
and make it easier for Boleslawiec and other companies to access a big new market
In the five years since it has been in operation
the EU’s trade agreement with South Korea has resulted in a big increase in bilateral trade. EU exports to its Asian partner have grown particularly strongly

The Polish minority in Bosnia and Herzegovina has mostly assimilated over the years
It is during the holidays of Christmas and Easter that the traditions and customs of their ancestors are revived
Photos are from the Minority Festival of the Prnjavor Municipality - Little Europe courtesy of Tomislav Durtka and his friends
Poles and other minorities from the Austro-Hungarian Empire moved and settled in the north-western part of Bosnia and Herzegovina
They were attracted to this area due to its arable land and good living conditions
there were 10,975 Poles living in Bosnia and Herzegovina
This group lived in 12 agricultural colonies in the Bosnian Krajina region
Poles formed one of the largest ethnic groups Prnjavor district
At the invitation of the Polish government
18,000 Poles from the area returned to the country around this time
the founder and project coordinator of the ”Association of Poles Bolesławiec-Prnjavor” and historical expert
explained some of his own personal history: “My dear grandfather
moved to Prnjavor in 1892 to the village of Ratkovac
Later immigrants got forests in the uninhabited area of today’s municipalities of Srbac
in order to turn them into fields with hard work”
According to the estimates of the Polish embassy in Sarajevo
the Polish diaspora in Bosnia and Herzegovina currently numbers 340 people
The first impressions of Tomislav’s homeland are dominated by its tradition
Despite having lost and forgotten much in the process of assimilation through the generations
Tomislav and his friends are trying to maintain their ancestral culture through the work of the Association of Poles in Bosnia and Herzegovina
members of the association organise a traditional Christmas Eve dinner (Wigilia) and serve 13 different kinds of fasting meals
This is accompanied by a special kind of bread called ‘oplatek’
Durtka says that “Our customs are mostly related to the holidays: Christmas and Easter
I also started the first Polish language school in Bosnia and Herzegovina
And we founded a small library of books about Poland
We regularly participate in events where we are able to present Polish traditions
culture and ethnic cuisine that is specific to Poland
a dish specific to this area that was brought here by Ukrainians and Poles
the people have become so familiar with each other that almost every house in Prnjavor makes them
and they can even be bought frozen in stores”
The Association of Poles together with people from Ukraine
Italy and Montenegro regularly organise a festival for national minorities
This event is called “Little Europe” because about 20 different ethnic groups were settled in the territory of Prnjavor
The association’s project of a Polish Language School in Prnjavor started in 1946
It is the only language school of its kind in Republika Srpska
“I organised the largest gathering of Poles in 80 years in 2019
when 300 members and guests from Poland (the city of Bolesławiec) gathered at the association’s headquarters
a friendly football match was organised and a performance by the folklore group “Mladi Bolesławiec”
we have marked a large number of Polish cemeteries that have become overgrown with dense forest over seven decades
and we have carried out a complete restoration of the cemetery in Devetina with financial assistance from the Polish embassy in Sarajevo
The Polish cemetery in Devetina was chosen as the place for a central landmark
a memorial plaque dedicated to all the Poles who once lived in this area and were buried there as well”
Only three per cent of the population identifies as a national minority
Poles in Bosnia and Herzegovina share many problems in common with other minorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina
they also face the same issues as the country’s constituent peoples
“The position of minorities in Prnjavor is certainly different than in the rest of the country
because here minorities are greatly integrated and participate in all aspects of society
They are also supported by the local government to a much greater extent than in other areas
Any project or initiative aimed at improving the position of both Poles and other national minorities living here is supported
I would change the way Bosnian society treats all minorities
we have the worst constitution in the world on this issue
We have reached a point where in Bosnia and Herzegovina today only three per cent of the population declares themselves a member of a national minority
In a country that has always been considered an area with a great amount of cultures and ethnicities
today we have fewer national minorities than any country in the region and beyond
What does that say about us and the pressure that these people are exposed to by not being what they are?”
This year is the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the return of the region’s Poles
organising an event has proven difficult due to the COVID pandemic
The arrival of a writer from Poland has also been announced as part of the celebration
Jan Bujak is writing his seventh book on the history of Poles in the area
so the group plan to support him and promote his books across Bosnia and Herzegovina
Tomislav Durtka hopes that the situation will improve by the summer so they can cooperate with the Association of Scouts from Poland
They hope to send children with their parents to a Polish language camp in Karpacz
cultural awareness and language abilities is their most important mission
Nataša Lazukić was born in Gradačac in Bosnia and Herzegovina
She studied at the Faculty of Philology in Banja Luka
She had the opportunity to write and publish literary texts for PEN Centar Bosnia and Herzegovina
some web and print magazines and newspapers
She has been awarded the UNICEF Award For Children’s Rights
She’s currently attending a gender studies at the Center for Women’s Studies in Belgrade

The consequences of Russia’s invasion are visible not only in Ukraine
The Kremlin has set off or exploited a series of crises that face most European countries
New thinking is needed in policies towards Russia
in whatever form it will take after the war
Ukraine’s suffering goes well beyond the front line
With Russia’s invasion of Ukraine we now see our western values under siege
whether we consciously recognise it or not
The invasion by Russian forces of Ukraine from the north
south and east – with the initial aim to take the capital Kyiv – has changed our region
The situation with Russian threats towards Ukraine once again illustrates the high level of instability in our region
Only a year ago we witnessed the second Nagorno-Karabakh war between Armenia and Azerbaijan
It took at least 5,000 lives and significantly shifted the geopolitics in the South Caucuses
This special issue aims to honour the plight of Belarusians whose democratic choice made in August 2020 was shamelessly snubbed by Alyaksandr Lukashenka
a lot of work still remains for this country
And this is why Ukraine’s story is incomplete
30 years after the fall of the Soviet Union
Our societies are more polarised than ever before
which makes them more susceptible to disinformation
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed limitations and weaknesses in nearly all countries around the world
volatility and the relationship between Russia and the West
The Black Sea region is quickly becoming a geopolitical battleground which is gaining the interest of major powers
regional players and smaller countries – and the stakes are only getting higher
This issue is dedicated to the 10 year anniversary of the European Union’s Eastern Partnership as well as the 30 years since the 1989 revolutions in Central Europe
The consequences of the emerging multipolar world
This issue takes a special look at the role and responsibility of the public intellectual in Central and Eastern Europe today
In the eastern parts of the European continent
1918 is remembered not only as the end of the First World War
but also saw the emergence of newly-independent states and the rise of geopolitical struggles which are felt until this day
that Belarus remains isolated from the West and very static in its transformation
The Summer 2018 issue of New Eastern Europe tackles the complexity of para-states in the post-Soviet space

Poland (AP) — A newly declassified secret of the CIA’s is the handiwork of experts in Poland: custom-made plates
bowls and other pieces of tableware painted with the U.S
the head of the craft-maker cooperative in the town of Boleslawiec that produced the ceramic set
said workers met the order with “joy and disbelief” and saw it as a chance to do “something exceptional.”
The hardest part was getting the original colors of the American eagle
shield and gold scroll that make up the seal to go with the pottery’s blue and white floral design
Polish leaders have had good relations with their counterparts in Washington since communism ended in 1989
the European country hosted CIA “black sites” for terrorism suspects
Donald Trump made Warsaw his first European destination after he was elected president
As part of his “America First” approach
Trump also has repeated his commitment to keeping jobs in the U.S
to the point where other countries have criticized his policies as protectionist
The CIA gave the Boleslawiec Artistic Handicrafts Cooperative permission to talk about the pottery it made for the agency
Boleslawiec ceramics are internationally prized — the painted pottery tradition in the town goes back to the 18th century — and several companies and shops there make it
Smolenska said she was not sure what inspired the CIA to order the items from her cooperative
troops stationed nearby who enjoyed trying to decorate tea mugs
The stoneware was completed “a few months ago” and shipped
but she said she was not at liberty to disclose how many sets the CIA ordered or where they were sent
The floral pattern was hand-applied on each item with small wooden stamps dipped in dye and brushes that filled in the color
each piece carries the trademark of the 65-year-old Boleslawiec cooperative

Trwająca pandemia uświadamia nam cały czas
jak ważny jest dostęp do sieci i umiejętność posługiwania się cyfrowymi narzędziami
Ale wejście w cyfrowy świat nie dotyczy tylko każdego z nas z osobna
To także nowe możliwości dla całego otoczenia
O cyfrowej transformacji miast mówi się od dawna
Każde nowoczesne miasto to złożony ekosystem
na który składa się wiele elementów zawierających wszystko to
co stanowi wyróżnik miast dynamicznie rozwijających się
jest inteligentna infrastruktura miejska służąca zarówno mieszkańcom
Tworząc Smart City musimy zawsze brać pod uwagę całą skomplikowaną sieć wspominanych wcześniej wzajemnych powiązań
bo dopiero takie podejście daje realne korzyści
Jednym z wielu fundamentów idei Smart City jest przemyślana oraz poprawnie wdrożona inteligentna infrastruktura miejska
żeby dzięki zintegrowanej infrastrukturze Internet of Things (IoT – ang
internetu rzeczy) zwiększyć efektywność działania służb i spółek miejskich i na końcu poprawić życie mieszkańca
Prawidłowo wdrożone rozwiązania składające się na całościową koncepcję Smart City wpływają też na zwiększenie efektywności inwestycji miejskich i bardziej zrównoważony rozwój miasta
A to przekłada się na zmiany odczuwalne dla wszystkich
Jeden wspólny system Smart IoT wdrażany już w coraz liczniejszych polskich miastach obejmuje wiele usług podstawowych dla każdego mieszkańca
Wystarczy wymienić zaopatrzenie w wodę i opomiarowanie jej zużycia
energooszczędne oświetlenie LED wraz z systemem zarządzania
inteligentny monitoring i zarządzanie miejscami parkingowymi
Do tego można dodać czujniki jakości powietrza i wody i tzw
które umieszczone w przestrzeni miejskiej zapewniają dostęp do internetu oraz możliwość ładowania urządzeń mobilnych – smartfonów i tabletów
konieczne są oczywiście konsekwentne działania władz miejskich i ich dobra współpraca z dostawcą systemów Smart
to Bolesławiec – miasto malowniczo usytuowane w dolinie rzeki Bóbr
słynne od średniowiecza z wyrobu naczyń ceramicznych znanych dziś na wszystkich kontynentach
że Bolesławiec jest dziś jednym z najbardziej inteligentnych miast w Polsce
Napisz: iot@orange.com skontaktujemy się z Tobą
Bolesławiec jest miastem posiadającym rozbudowaną infrastrukturę miejską: wodociągi
gospodarka odpadami oraz szereg innych ważnych usług
wymagających szczególnej atencji zarówno z punktu widzenia kosztów
Spójność zarządzania w naszym wypadku ma szczególne znaczenie w czasie pandemii
kiedy jako samorząd walczymy o zdrowie obywateli
System Smart IoT od Orange wdrożyliśmy myśląc o przyszłości miasta oraz mieszkańców
pamiętam początki projektu oraz duże obawy co do innowatorskiego konceptu oraz technologii internetu rzeczy
co obecnie przełożyło się na kompleksowe podejście do zarządzania miastem
lampy są zarządzane spójnie przez jeden system
do tego wszystko odbywa się zdalnie oraz niesamowicie szybko
mamy po raz pierwszy dostęp do tak dużej ilości różnorodnych danych
dzięki czemu już teraz staliśmy się pionierem „Miast budowanych w koncepcji 4.0.”
W Polsce odsetek mieszkańców stanowi około 60 proc
Nowoczesne technologie informacyjne oparte na internecie rzeczy (IoT) uznawane są za kluczowe dla zrównoważonego wykorzystywania zasobów w miastach
mają zatem fundamentalne znaczenie dla zdecydowanej większości Europejczyków
Technologie Smart City pomagają zapewnić sprawną
Pozwalają na optymalne wykorzystanie infrastruktury miejskiej i oszczędność zasobów
Wymierne korzyści z IoT dla miast to między innymi oszczędności finansowe
czy ograniczenie zanieczyszczenia środowiska
Orange Polska jest liderem internetu rzeczy i komunikacji M2M (machine to machine) w naszym kraju
1,9 mln kart SIM wykorzystywanych w tych usługach
27 miast i gmin obsługujemy w zakresie zdalnego opomiarowania wody
W trzech miastach wdrożyliśmy instalacje inteligentnego oświetlenia
w szesnastu – miejskie wypożyczalnie rowerów czwartej generacji
w czterech – inteligentne sensory jakości powietrza
a w trzech – inteligentny system monitoringu usług komunalnych
dyrektorem IoT i Zaawansowanych Technologii w Orange Polska
czyli inteligentne miasto z prawdziwego zdarzenia
Przede wszystkim odpowiednie technologie i sprawna infrastruktura umożliwiająca ich działanie
Wdrożeniem musi zająć się dostawca z odpowiednim doświadczeniem
bo nawet najlepszy dostawca usług nic nie zdziała bez władz miasta przekonanych
że wdrażanie innowacji jest konieczne i może przynieść realne korzyści
Na szczęście takich świadomych włodarzy miast przybywa
Już 29 samorządów tworzy z nami inteligentne miasta
Jego władze doskonale zdają sobie sprawę zarówno z oczekiwań mieszkańców
jak i z wyzwań stojących przed współczesnymi ośrodkami miejskimi
Dążenie do poprawy jakości życia przy jednoczesnym usprawnieniu zarządzania transportem i mediami komunalnymi stało się ich podstawowym celem
Jak rozpoczęła się Wasza współpraca z tym miastem
Najpierw był system rowerów miejskich czwartej generacji Smart Bike
który obsługuje dziesięć stacji i trzydzieści rowerów
Duże zainteresowanie i zadowolenie użytkowników z systemu skłoniło władze miasta do realizacji kolejnych projektów z zakresu Smart City
Może niekoniecznie w sensie technologicznym
bo uruchamiane systemy wymagały nierzadko naprawdę zaawansowanej wiedzy
ale już korzystanie z nich okazywało się najczęściej zaskakująco proste
że do kolejnych wdrożeń nie musieliśmy nikogo zbyt mocno przekonywać
Jakie jeszcze systemy wdrożyliście w Bolesławcu i co konkretnie one zmieniły
Smart Water wdrożone przez Przedsiębiorstwo Wodociągów i Kanalizacji w Bolesławcu umożliwia w pełni zdalny i bezobsługowy odczyt stanu wodomierzy
a także łatwiejsze zarządzanie siecią wodociągową i szybsze wykrywanie awarii
czyli system inteligentnego zarządzania oświetleniem
pozwala na bezprzewodowe i automatyczne sterowane oprawami oświetleniowymi LED
Ułatwia regulację zużycia prądu i natychmiastową informację o usterkach
a cały system oświetlenia może być na bieżąco dostosowywany do warunków pogodowych
Automatyzacja sterowania oświetleniem miejskim pozwala także na redukcję emisji dwutlenku węgla
W Bolesławcu zainstalowanych zostało 25 nowych opraw oświetleniowych LED
Wdrożeniu inteligentnego oświetlenia towarzyszyła instalacja Smart Sensor – czujników zanieczyszczenia powietrza
które mierzą w czasie rzeczywistym stężenie pyłów zawieszonych PM1
że do kolejnych wdrożeń coraz łatwiej było przekonać władze miasta
Wdrożone rozwiązania spod znaku Smart City rzeczywiście zyskały przychylność urzędników miejskich
bo łatwo było zauważyć ich pozytywny wpływ na zarządzanie infrastrukturą miejską
