On March 12, the "25 years of Poland in NATO" issued by Poczta Polska. The latest philatelic value reminds you of one of the most important successes of the Polish policy of the last decades, which was a milestone to ensure the last safety of Polish women and Poles.
A white eagle and a NATO logotype - a compass rose, a symbol of striving to ensure safety from all sides were presented on the jubilee stamp. The composition was placed on a blue background, symbolizing consent and referring to the Atlantic Ocean. The emblems were placed alternately next to the anniversary digit. The whole composition was supplemented with a white and red ribbon.
The new emission of the value is complemented by the envelope on the first day of circulation (FDC), whose central motif is the Polish and NATO flags waved in the wind. The publishing house is also accompanied by an occasional date stamp, which in its graphics presents a view of the Zygmunt column and the Royal Castle in Warsaw and information about the date and place of the stamp in circulation.

Philatelic values travel with letters and cards, reaching every corner of the country - and more. The latest philatelic emission not only reminds you of one of the most important successes of the Polish policy of the last decades, but also is an expression of thanks to all people involved in the process of building our security - says Sebastian Mikosz, the president of Poczta Polska.
The stamp was issued in a circulation of 1,000,000 copies and is available in post offices and a philatelic online store.
Polish road to NATO
The organization of the North Atlantic Treaty was founded in 1949 under the North Atlantic Treaty signed in Washington by 12 countries. The purpose of creating a North Atlantic Alliance was to defend against possible aggression on the part of the USSR and later the Warsaw Pact countries. After the Cold War and the collapse of the USSR in 1991, NATO was involved in military missions and operations, including in Afghanistan, Kosovo and Libya.
Many years of diplomatic efforts and reforms carried out, among others In the sphere of defense, they resulted in the admission of Poland to the North Atlantic Alliance on March 12, 1999. Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland, prof. Bronisław Geremek was handed over to the US Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright, the act of Poland's accession to the North Atlantic Treaty. At that moment, the Republic of Poland has formally become a party to the treaty - a member of the North Atlantic Alliance. Over the past 25 years, Poland's position in NATO has been constantly growing.
