– Today, August 15th, American-Russian talks on war and peace will also begin there in Ukraine. There's probably no better day for everyone without exception in Europe and the world to remember that nothing is impossible. The Miracle on the Vistula was a miracle of heroism, courage, faith in one's own strength, and the unity of the Polish nation. Poles simply didn't know, no one told them, that the Russian army was invincible – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at the GROM Military Unit.

“I would like all our partners in the world, in Europe, in NATO to remember August 15th”

– Today, we hear remarks that support for fighting Ukraine makes no great sense, because after all, you can't win against Russia. I would like all our partners in the world, in Europe, in NATO to remember August 15th, to remember that in the conditions we have to live in – you work in these conditions, sometimes fight directly, every day. That in this reality we are in, strength matters, the conviction that one can win; in the modern world, only the strong are respected. Poland, also thanks to you, is a strong state today – he continued.

“On security matters, Polish politicians are and must be united”

– We have these three pillars: responsible politics – Poland does not seek an enemy, no unnecessary risks; Poland is supported by the NATO alliance, in the EU; we cooperate well with most of our neighbors, and this responsible policy allows us to believe that there will be no direct threat. Responsible politics is one of these pillars. The second pillar, just like 105 years ago, is that on security matters – and we also owe this to you, GROM members – Polish politicians are and must be united, just as the nation was united then and is united today – said the head of government.

“I'll do everything for us to be united on security matters, just like 105 years ago”

– I can promise that I will do everything, because someone has to instill this principle in everyone in Polish public life; I will do everything so that on matters of security, international politics, defense of our borders, when it is necessary, we are united, just like 105 years ago – Tusk emphasized.

“The third pillar, the most important one, is you”

– The third pillar, the most important one, is you. One can talk about security, wise politics, also participate in a parade, one can speak. But in the end, all of that would be empty gestures and words if it weren't for your presence and the fact that you can always be counted on – he added.
