Summary/Abstract: The popular Cracow daily, Ilustrowany Kuryer Codzienny tries to explain the tense Polish-British relations with the English strategy adopted towards Soviet Russia, taking into account the global context - not only European but also Asian, African, and North American. At the same time, it seems to show understanding for the Irish struggling for independence, even as they seek allies in the Bolsheviks. On the other hand, he is hostile to the Jews, whom it accuses of inspiring the anti-Polish policy of British Prime Minister David Lloyd George. Comparing the news from the IKC column relating to such topics with the contemporary scientific literature leads to a preliminary conclusion that the newspaper was well-versed in the international situation at that time. The verification of a research problem formulated in this way requires extensive and, at the same time, detailed exploration.
