The Czech Republic is planning to return 365 hectares of land to Poland, according to Czech Public Radio. The Czech Ministry of Interior has decided to give back a fragment of land located in the Liberec province between Świeradów and Bogatynia in the Western Sudetes mountains.

The land transaction will remedy a long-standing discrepancy. Back in the late 1950s, Poland and Czechoslovakia shifted their borders, but the latter received more land than it gave up – 365 ha more, to be precise.

The two countries have been deliberating the land debt for almost 20 years.
