Polish President Duda: Defeating Russia in Ukraine war is the only ‘guarantee of peace’
Western support for Ukraine as it defends against Russia has globally significant consequences, Polish President Andrzej Duda said Tuesday, urging Kyiv’s backers to remain steadfast.
Western support for Ukraine as it defends against Russia has globally significant consequences, Polish President Andrzej Duda said Tuesday, urging Kyiv’s backers to remain steadfast.
“It is about making sure that Russia is not able legally to forcefully shift the borders in Europe,” Duda told CNN’s Jake Tapper in an interview from the United Nations headquarters in New York.
This is exactly what I don't understand about people who want peace in Ukraine as soon as possible and at all costs: capitulation for the sake of short-term peace endangers long-term peace.
If we globally set the precedent that you can invade whomever you want and win just because you have nukes, that makes for a vastly more dangerous world. Every country with nukes will suddenly be more willing to go all imperialist, and all the countries without nukes will want to have them as a guarantee against invasion. And I don't know about y'all, but a world with way more nukes in way more hands is way more dangerous.
Plus, Putin has shown he'll keep on invading neighbors so long as he can get away with it. Delivering a crushing defeat to Russia and specifically Putin is the only way to achieve a more lasting peace.
No but you see for something to be imperialism it has to come from the imperialist region of the world. When Russia is doing it it's only sparkling aggression.
That aside imperialism is supposed to benefit the economy while Russia's has been going to the shitter. Checkmate, liberal, I'm very smart.
Europe is treating putin exactly the same way they treated hitler. It's an entire continent of people who never learn. What's next; is germany going to go through belgium to invade france again?
If we globally set the precedent that you can invade whomever you want and win just because you have nukes, that makes for a vastly more dangerous world.
That's what we've been doing for decades? Have you ever heard of the USA? This was was started by the USA overthrowing Ukraine with its Nazi allies.
Putin has shown he’ll keep on invading neighbors so long as he can get away with it
How the fuck has he shown that? How many countries has Russia invaded since Putin got into power?
Even the US foreign policy people have been warning that Russia won't accept NATO in Ukraine. This is why they invaded, not because Putin is a serial invader, because he very clearly isn't. You know who are actually serial invaders? The US and their NATO entourage.
This has to be one of the top 10 dumbest takes of 2023 lol
How the fuck has he shown that? How many countries has Russia invaded since Putin got into power?
Not counting Chechnya (which should arguably have become independent after the dissolution of the USSR) and the attempts at colonialism in Africa and Arabia: Two. Georgia and Ukraine. On top of that he continued the occupation of Moldovan territory.
The US and their NATO entourage.
...have not annexed territory since... I'm too lazy to look it up. For the US it's Hawaii, I think. Also comparing Russia to the US is choosing an awfully low bar. It's like the US saying "but we imprison a smaller amount of our population than North Korea!"
The one fucking thing I agree with Duda on. Fuck the PIS for the majority though
We are definitely in "Worst guy you know just made a good point" territory on this one.
And in related news, Poland will no longer supply weapons to Ukraine in dispute over a grain ban
So there's that, I guess.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Western support for Ukraine as it defends against Russia has globally significant consequences, Polish President Andrzej Duda said Tuesday, urging Kyiv’s backers to remain steadfast.
“It is about making sure that Russia is not able legally to forcefully shift the borders in Europe,” Duda told CNN’s Jake Tapper in an interview from the United Nations headquarters in New York.
“This is the guarantee of peace in the future, also for the United States.” Poland and Ukraine share a lengthy border, an area where the war resonated fiercely on Tuesday after Russian drones struck warehouses in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv.
Both leaders took the podium in New York on Tuesday morning, as the United Nations General Debate got underway.
Poland has been an ally of Ukraine since the Russian invasion, taking in more than a million Ukrainian refugees and leading the way in urging NATO partners to send more military supplies to Kyiv.
But the US is also closely monitoring its ongoing security assistance to Kyiv, as a growing number of Republicans call for more oversight into how the money is being used and question the wisdom of spending billions of dollars on its defense.

I misread and had a Bill & Ted moment. Anyway, party on Polish President Dude.
If Polish President Dude gets a public holiday named after him, would it be Duda Day?
Well that's just like your opinion, man.
True dat
“It is about making sure that Russia is not able legally to forcefully shift the borders in Europe,” Duda told
This guy needs to watch the news more often. He's way too late for this.
"The only guarantee for peace is war"
The actual guarantee for peace would be ruskies just going home. But nope, that won't happen, we need to give them the entirety of Ukraine, Poland, the Baltics, Germany and France. I'm serial you guys, they have NUKEZ
Don't forget Finland. They've been laying the groundwork for us as well.
