Trump's talks with Putin risk emboldening Russian aggression
- Putin and Lavrov are sitting and drinking champagne, watching what is happening. It happened without their involvement, managing to divide the Western world - commented Gen. Roman Polko.
- We must be aware that any actions limiting aid to Ukraine equate to the deaths of many innocent people - said Gen. Roman Polko on Radio Piekary.
He emphasized that Ukraine has the right to feel somewhat deceived because the aid it received was always delayed, as if Europe and the world did not realize that defending against Putin's imperial ambitions is essentially the defense of Europe and the world against autocratic rule.
Gen. Polko: To prevent the Russians from crossing the Dnieper line
He added that he fears Trump's negotiations with Putin. - Putin was in oblivion, he was isolated. Suddenly President Trump offered him a hand. Putin essentially went all-in. Bombardments and attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine are conducted daily - the general said.
- It is in Poland's strategic interest that Russian forces never cross the Dnieper line - he emphasized.
General Polko assessed that what President Trump proposed, which is the cessation of operations and halting the current front line without any guarantees of peace, is giving Putin time to regroup his forces, re-equip them, and to resume aggression.
