‘Ukraine defending Poland, Europe and Germany’ – Andrzej Duda

In an interview on the 1st of August 2022, Polish President, Andrzej Duda stated that Ukraine is not in defense of itself only but the entire continent of Europe. He believes Russia posses a threat to Europe.

In his words;

“Today, Ukraine is defending Poland and Europe, including Germany. If Ukraine’s heroic resistance fails to beat Putin’s imperialistic plans, Poland and the Baltic states will be exposed to the direct threat of Russia’s expanding sphere of influence in Central Europe.”

The President challenges the idea of ‘Russia the great’. He believes it translates into the subordination of other nations.

President Duda expressed his gratitude to Ukraine;

“Thanks to Ukraine, this threat today is contained. In the future, however, I believe that it will be on the agenda”. “The only thing we can do is to enhance our security. Ukraine is showing what one can do when armed well.”
