Polish leader Andrzej Duda has responded to threats from the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryshkin. The latter began to claim that in the event of a NATO attack on Russia or Belarus, "particularly aggressive" Poland and the Baltic states would be the first to suffer.

Points of attention

  • The confrontation highlights the importance of maintaining Euro-Atlantic ties and pursuing effective policies to ensure stability in the region.
  • Russia's provocative actions, including moving nuclear weapons closer to NATO borders, are met with a firm response from Duda and allies.

Duda put Russia in its place again

According to the Polish president, Naryshkin's new scandalous statements can be considered an example of "classic Russian disinformation."

In addition to misleading many people in different parts of the world, it is also typical of the Soviet school of propaganda.

This is what Russia says, which is moving nuclear weapons to Belarus, brazenly bringing them closer to the borders of NATO and the European Union. Russia, which is behaving aggressively towards NATO and implementing its cruel and bloodthirsty imperialism, has been attacking Ukraine for three years.

Against this background, Andrzej Duda once again reminded that NATO is a defensive alliance, and all its actions are a response to Russian aggression.

One cannot also ignore the fact that the bloc's members have never started a war, unlike Russia.

In addition, the Polish leader called on his country's allies to continue the current policy course, which is based on strengthening security and stability.

Duda believes that strengthening Euro-Atlantic ties and modernizing the armies of NATO countries is the only effective policy worth pursuing.

Trump's team has staged a showdown with the European Union over Ukraine

What is Trump's team unhappy about?
Source:  The Economist

According to The Economist, members of US leader Donald Trump's team have expressed dissatisfaction with the efforts of EU members to strengthen Ukraine amid its war with the aggressor country Russia.

Points of attention

  • The showdown signifies a significant change in US-EU relations regarding Ukraine and raises concerns about the future of international support for the country.
  • Journalists emphasize the challenges of interpreting signals from the chaotic administration, highlighting the complexity of the situation.

What is Trump's team unhappy about?

Journalists are drawing attention to a number of steps by the White House that actually indicate a withdrawal from support for Ukraine.

What is important to understand is that this is not only about the withdrawal of the military from the key base in Rzeszow, but also about reducing the presence in the Contact Group on Defense Issues in Ukraine.

We also cannot ignore the fact that it was the administration that imposed a basic 10 percent tariff on Ukraine, but Russia was not affected by such restrictions.

Another sign of the times is that Pentagon officials recently questioned one of their allies about why it continues to supply weapons to Ukraine.

Moreover, it is indicated that some of Trump's aides even complained in private conversations that they were "fed up" with Europe's efforts to strengthen Ukraine.

As is always the case with such a chaotic administration, it is difficult to distinguish the real signal from the noise, the journalists emphasize.
