– In Poland, we sincerely believe that only peace can provide optimal conditions for development, and therefore all imperial ideologies that see conquest as a tool for improving the lives of their own citizens, as well as strengthening their international position, are alien to us – stated President Andrzej Duda during a UN session.

– At the same time, I admit that this same way of thinking has led many European leaders to become blind to the threat of Russia's imperialist policy. I hope that the process of waking up from this geopolitical slumber, however painful it may be, will be swift, and Europe will take greater responsibility for its security in cooperation with proven allies – PAD continued.
