Poland's geopolitical future depends on Ukraine, - Tusk

Tusk noted that Poland must strategically use its key position in the region and continue to support Ukraine, as its defeat would mean a deterioration of the situation on the Vistula River, Gazeta Wyborcza reports.

According to Tusk, Poland's geopolitical future will look very good if Ukraine does not lose and if we manage to overcome this historical Polish-Ukrainian resentment.

"Building strong, friendly partnerships with a sovereign Ukraine, without forgetting our interests, of course, is a great opportunity for Poland. Therefore, we must focus on helping Ukraine, because if it loses the war, the situation in Poland will change radically for the worse. Although here I am a moderate optimist. There are no objective reasons why Ukraine should lose," he said.

Tusk recalled the incident on the night of September 9-10, when Russian drones violated Polish airspace. He called it a turning point in the conflict.

He described the decision to shoot down the drones as a difficult one.

“It was not easy, because no one wants to go too far and accidentally start World War III,” he said, noting that giving in and tolerating provocations leads to nothing good.
