- The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development has been set by regulation and economic law in the world for 60 years. It was also the first grouping of the Western world to which our country was invited and adopted after the political changes in 1989. A quarter of a century, cooperation brought many benefits to the Polish economy and society. On this occasion, among the numerous promotional and information activities, we also issued an occasional stamp -said Deputy Minister of Development and Technology Grzegorz Piechowiak.
- When, 25 years ago, Poland on equal rights began to organize economic cooperation and development - OECD - de facto returned to the group of Western countries. Our path to NATO structures and the European Union began with this event. We celebrated the jubilee of that event with a stamp symbolizing the joint pursuit of OECD members to the highest level of economic growth and the living rate of citizens, in accordance with the main goal of this organization - says Tomasz Zdzikot, president of the board of Poczta Polska.
The philatelic emission of the "25 years of Poland in OECD" is part of the promotional and information activities related to the jubilee celebrations of our activity in the organization of economic cooperation and development.
