Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk: "Poland is really building the strongest army in the region, one of the strongest armies in NATO." Not because we want to climb the rankings, but because we know that above all we must rely on ourselves in these very difficult times. We spend 7% in total on security and defense, and we will not change that policy. We understand what a burden this is. It is no coincidence that we have a 7% deficit when we spend 7% on defense and security. But we have no choice. Trump himself, after the election, said the Democrats did a good job, and I really couldn't agree with him more this time. I hope that the result will stabilize the situation in our region as well. We are dealing with very brutal and realistic politics in Moscow, Beijing and Washington. Europe cannot continue to pretend to be innocent. It's a very tough game, and we have to be able to spend large amounts of money on our security. Today, in Poland and the Czech Republic, we have no inferiority complex towards the Germans or the French. anything. People come to us from all over the world because they want to invest. We made really good use of European funds."
