The Social Security Court allowed the pension claimant's request to receive benefits based on foreign employment periods. The applicant argued that Polish law should recognize these periods despite the lack of a bilateral agreement, while the opposing party contended that only periods within Poland's jurisdiction count. The court decided in favor of the applicant by applying the principle of territoriality to extend coverage to foreign work.
