– Why wasn't Tusk there, who, in turn, signed up for the coalition of the willing? […] Why wasn't he in Washington? For two reasons. Firstly, he couldn't have been there because Trump knows exactly who Tusk is. Let's recall Tusk's words from early spring or late winter this year: "500 million Europeans will not ask 300 million Americans to defend us against 140 million Russians" – said Przemysław Czarnek on TV Republika.

– So Trump certainly doesn't want to see Tusk around, even setting aside Tusk's earlier insults towards Donald Trump. After all, this man staked everything on one card, convinced that Kamala Harris, not Donald Trump, would win, and convinced that Rafał Trzaskowski, not Karol Nawrocki, would win – he continued.

– Why didn't Tusk go, for the second reason? And that's because Merz doesn't see him there, Merz, the German Chancellor, as is known, greatly dislikes Tusk – he continued.
