Can you ping that url? Can your Mikrotik ping it?

IMHO you have bad DNS name for NTP server.

It should be like N.PL.pool.ntp.org where PL is the country name ... PL is for Poland.

No, that is no longer required.
When the pool started, the country code was sort of required because it would enable the pool
to give you servers that are "close" to you.
But later, a GEO-IP service was added to the DNS service for pool.ntp.org and now it will give you
close servers without having to specify the country code.
(of course there can be occasional mistakes due to incorrect data in the GEO-IP database)

there were some issues with the NTP client from the ntp package that we resolved. For example, NTP client hanging with started on reached state. Also, always check if NTP server you are using actually is responding.
