Russia Targets Poland Geopolitically Fundraiser Econ Lessons
Poland is a great supporter of Ukraine. However recent comments from the Polish President Andrzej Duda "Bez amerykańskiego wsparcia Ukraina nie przetrwa tej wojny." Which means without American support Ukraine can not win. This is a negative narrative that the world needs to be aware of. The Polish President traveled to Washington to meet the US President at CPAC and I believe he feels these ideas are in line with his Law and Justice (PiS) party conservative values and that Poland is getting defensive equipment from the US. The US and Polish President reaffirmed their ties, which is good. As a cautionary tale I want humanity to be aware that these statements about Ukraine however as state above, are one-dimensional and do not fully represent either Poland or America. As someone who is a citizen of both countries I try to give objective analysis in that regard.
