We respect and like General Kellogg. Notice, he said "should," which means he thinks so, but that doesn't mean he will. General Kellogg may have exaggerated the fact that Poland will be part of this operation if it does, but our participation in this operation will not include the presence of Polish soldiers on Ukrainian soil," said Radosław Sikorski in "Onet Morning".
In a separate entry on X, the head of the Polish MFA stressed one more time that "Poland will NOT send Polish soldiers to Ukraine".
In addition, Sikorski referred to the situation in Ukraine. In his opinion Vladimir Putin should appear on 15 May in Istanbul, where further talks are to be held about the end of the war. "If he wants peace, he should agree to an unconditional ceasefire for 30 days," he said.
Let us remind you that General Keith Kellogg is simply a peculiar U.S. envoy for Ukraine. On 13 May, he argued that U.S. representatives were discussing with allies the anticipation of deploying forces west of Dnieper after the introduction of a ceasefire. He meant 4 European countries, including Poland.
As we wrote in the Temat, 3 years ago Jarosław Kaczyński was the first to propose sending the Polish army to Ukraine. "A NATO peace mission or a wider global agreement is needed, which will besides be able to defend itself and which will work in Ukraine," said the president of the Law and Justice Office in March 2022. At that time, he proposed the introduction of a mission involving Polish soldiers.
This year, he changed his head and said that this could not be allowed. On Tuesday 13 May, he stated that only Karol Nawrocki guarantees that the Polish military will not be utilized outside the country.
This time Sikorski left no uncertainty about the possible presence of Polish troops in Ukraine. But he spoke more mysteriously in the beginning of May. We're not gonna exposure our cards. Let president Putin wonder what we will do – explained Sikorski.
