Max Kolonko (born Mariusz Max Kolonko in 1965, Lubliniec, Poland) is a conservative Polish-American journalist, political commentator, and a pretender to the title of the President of Poland. He describes himself as the "President of the United States of the Fourth Polish Republic". He won the Kisiel Prize for journalism in 2015.[1]

Kolonko studied journalism at the University of Warsaw and political science at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań.[2] He was a television correspondent in the United States and authored two books in the field of journalistic and political commentary. He is also the founder of MaxTV, an internet-based television platform initially launched on YouTube.[2]

Peace plan for Ukraine

On February 22, 2022, Kolonko, acting in his capacity as a political scientist, released a self-authored proposal he referred to as a "peace plan" for Ukraine, aimed at preventing the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The proposal, shared via his personal media platforms, envisioned dividing Ukraine into three so-called "Peace Sectors": Sector West to be administered by Polish peacekeepers, Sector Central by a United Nations peacekeeping force, and Sector East by Russian peacekeepers. According to the plan, following stabilization, elections would be held to establish a federated state called the "United States of Ukraine", with Kyiv designated as a Free City.[3][4]

As of 2025, the plan has not been endorsed by any recognized international bodies or governments and has not been cited in academic or diplomatic publications.
