Europe in pre-war era due to Russia’s threat - Poland’s Prime Minister warns
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has warned that Europe is in a “pre-war era” but still has a “long way to go” before its ready to confront the threat posed by Russia.
“War is no longer a concept from the past. It is real, and it started over two years ago. The most worrying thing at the moment is that literally any scenario is possible. We haven’t seen a situation like this since 1945,” Tusk said in an interview with German newspaper Die Welt published Friday.
“I know it sounds devastating, especially for the younger generation, but we have to get used to the fact that a new era has begun: the pre-war era. I’m not exaggerating; it’s becoming clearer every day.”
Last weekend, Poland said a Russian cruise missile aimed at Ukraine had entered its airspace – a repeat occurrence during more than two years of war – and demanded an explanation from Moscow.
Despite Europe’s efforts to bolster its defense, Tusk said the continent still “has a long way to go.” He said it must be “independent and self-sufficient in defense” while maintaining a strong alliance in the US.
Polish President Andrzej Duda also stated that Russia could soon restore its military potential and attack NATO countries as early as 2026.
Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs Annalena Baerbock also says that Vladimir Putin is trying to drag NATO into a war, but Germany will not allow him.
"Putin's goal was and is to destroy the existence of Ukraine as an independent, free country and drag NATO into a war," Baerbock said, noting that the German government will not allow this to happen.
The German Foreign Minister adds that the Kremlin leader is not open to arguments, calls for humanity, and does not want to engage in negotiations.
