“It is absolutely obvious for me, as for the Prime Minister of Poland, that I will always be very committed to transatlantic relations… And we have always accepted the leadership of the United States. It is absolutely natural,” Tusk said.
He emphasized that the United States will always play “the most important role” for Poland, particularly when it comes to security issues.
“And that is why it is so important for all of us, as well as for our partners in Washington, to understand the difference between dominance and leadership,” the Polish Prime Minister emphasized.
In his opinion, “leadership is normal”, while dominance can permanently damage the transatlantic relationship.
The Prime Minister of Poland stated that now is “one of the most critical moments in our relations with our partners, with our friends.”
Based on this, Tusk emphasized that “one of the most important things is preserving the unity of Europe.”
