“Since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the war on our eastern border has been absolutely crucial to our security. Our position is constant and unchanging: this war cannot end with the victory of Russia. It should end with a just peace, which will make it possible to prevent the emergence of a new, perhaps even bigger, conflict in the future,” said Duda.
He also emphasized that Poland’s security is based on two pillars: a strong and modern army and the strength of alliances. The head of state recalled that in March in Washington he presented a proposal to increase defense spending of all North Atlantic Alliance countries to 3% of GDP.
“I am glad that today more and more countries are joining my initiative, because only a strong NATO led by the USA guarantees the security of Poland and our entire region,” the president said.
