Poland, on the NATO eastern flank, is one of kyiv’s strongest supporters, and Sikorski used his speech to strongly criticize Russia.
He said, addressing Russian leaders: “Don’t you have enough land? Eleven time areas and not enough? Does a better government take care of what is inside your borders according to international law.”

The allies of Poland and Europe are trying to strengthen your defensesFearing that Russian aggression does not stop in Ukraine, while the Trump administration points out that Europe must assume more security responsibilities.
Although he did not mention by his name the president of the United States, Donald Trump, the Sikorski direction seemed to include implicit criticism of concessions that Trump has been willing to make Russia to end the war.
Since he assumed the position again, Trump has falsely claimed Ukraine “The war should never have begun,” said Ukraine, “it can be Russian one day” and questioned the legitimacy of the government of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

“For Poland, the greatest threat would be the disintegration of the western community. That is why we cannot afford illusions or inaction. We cannot afford to be alone,” said Sikorski.

He also pointed out that the situation in the front lines in the east and south of Ukraine is “ambiguous”, and that the slow progress of the Russian forces is paid for “with great losses.”

“It is estimated that the war has already cost Russia at least $ 200 billion, and almost one million Russian soldiers have been eliminated from the battlefield. Ukrainian losses are smaller, and have not allowed the capture of their capital or the installation of a puppet government.”
