Bronisław Komorowski: “Let us not be attached to the words of the authorities”

The erstwhile president Bronisław Komorowski, erstwhile asked about the anticipation of sending Polish soldiers to Ukraine, expressed his opinion that it is not appropriate to adhere to the declarations of the Polish authorities, which at this minute exclude this possibility. Donald Tusk said he wasn't considering. So it is possible that he does not consider, possibly he will consider – said Komorowski in a conversation with journalists. His words propose that the situation may change in the future, especially in the context of a dynamic global situation.

Komorowski besides pointed out that countries that face electoral challenges frequently refrain from making controversial decisions. “These countries that have electoral issues behind them behave more courageously,” added the erstwhile president, suggesting that abroad policy can be shaped under interior conditions.

Without Europe, it will be much harder for him," he stressed.

Is the mission of Polish soldiers to Ukraine real?

Although the Polish authorities presently exclude the anticipation of sending soldiers to Ukraine, the discussion on this subject shows that the subject is alive and can return in the future. Supporters of this solution emphasize that global engagement may be crucial to maintaining peace in Ukraine. The opponents point to the immense risks associated with this mission, especially in the context of relations with Russia.

As Bronisław Komorowski stressed, decisions in abroad policy frequently depend on many factors, including home situations in individual countries. "These countries that have "slow electoral challenges" hold and refuse to send soldiers," the erstwhile president recalled.
