Abstract
Few people had such a significant impact on the Polish-Czechoslovak relations in the interwar period as the longtime leader of the Second Republic, the leader and politician Józef Klemens Pilsudski. Until now, in scientific and popular literature there prevails an opinion – in fact a correct one – that this great Polish leader did not believe in the sustainability of the Czechoslovak state formed after World War I and was very reluctant towards the leaders of the Czechoslovak Republic, especially Edvard Beneš. This opinion was founded in the interwar period, and was, in fact, confirmed in later memoirs and studies of the Polish-Czechoslovak relations, however, is somewhat exaggerated and “demonized” in the context of contacts between Poland and Czechoslovakia in the interwar period.
