Radosław Sikorski about the US military base in Poland and Russian provocations in Moldova

The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Radosław Sikorski, was asked by journalists in the capital of Lesser Poland about the words of the head of the Presidential Office of International Policy, Marcin Przydacz, who stated that "the political decision to establish a US base in Poland has already been made, the White House has given the green light." However, he added that this decision still needs to be implemented by the Pentagon and the Ministry of National Defense.

Here, the president has the main, and in fact the only, state task - to use his alleged closeness to Donald Trump to enforce this decision, because the government has done its job, that is, it has sent a resolution of the Council of Ministers to the American authorities that we are ready to accept this base and pay for it - said Minister Sikorski.

He recalled that there is already a precedent related to the US base in Poland in the form of the US anti-missile defense base in Redzikowo, which was opened in 2024 during the government of Donald Tusk.

We wish for a second base, this time of the United States Army, there have already been commissions to choose the right location. I hope that even if the United States were to reduce the number of its soldiers in Europe as a whole, it would strengthen its presence where there is a real threat, noted the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Let's not listen to Russian idiots and their useful idiots"

When asked about Saturday's incursions of five Russian air attack weapons into Moldova's airspace, Sikorski said that they may be related to Putin's desire to cut off Ukraine from foreign aid.

Putin clearly wants to cut off Ukraine from foreign aid, and the more he attacks Ukraine, the more he threatens us, the more we should support Ukraine, said the minister, adding that it does not matter that Moldova does not belong to the North Atlantic Alliance, because "Putin has no inhibitions in attacking NATO countries either."

Putin is escalating because he thinks that we will be scared of him, because he thinks that he will be able to intimidate us - let's not be intimidated, let's not listen, also here in Poland, to Russian bastards and their useful idiots - appealed the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
