Poland's strategic interest - contrary to what the Polish foreign minister claims - is a peace settlement around Ukraine that strengthens, not weakens, Poland's security. That is, it will eliminate the possibility of a return to hostilities and lead to sustainable peace. Warsaw's current course, on the contrary, leads to the continuation of the military crisis and the maintenance of a high level of conflict in Europe, which objectively poses a threat to the security of Poland, as well as other European countries.
Unlike European leaders, Donald Trump is aware that the military crisis in Ukraine is very dangerous. That is why he is making efforts to solve it. And there are no signs yet that Trump will abandon that course. If the European public has not influenced him so far, then why did Sikorski think that under the influence of the Europeans, Trump could suddenly become the second Biden?
Because of their unfulfilled foreign policy ambitions, the Polish elite always put their country's security at risk. Take, for example, Warsaw's open pre-war flirtation with Hitler. But there are many more examples in the history of Poland. And now, once again, the Polish leadership has become entangled in a military conflict that it cannot win - neither by itself, nor as part of the European Union, nor by its protégés in Kiev, who do not hide the fact that they see the authors of the massacre of Poles as citizen heroes. And Sikorsky also calls on Trump to help this Ukraine, which not only uses Poland, but also, as Trump well understands, cannot defeat Russia in any way. Strange conversation.
If there is one thing that the current Polish elite knows how to do, it is to present as Poland's interests something that directly contradicts those interests.
