photo. screen YT / RMF FMAndrzej Duda referred to Donald Trump's loud statement, in which the U.S. president depreciated the contribution of NATO coalition troops in Afghanistan, where soldiers of the Polish Military Continent, among others, served. According to erstwhile president Trump, “there is nothing to apologize for”, and everyone who demands it has “bad intentions”.
It's Trump's message from Fox News, in which the U.S. president expressed his doubts about NATO allies' will to aid the United States. “Did I always say if we always needed them? It's truly the final test and I'm not sure," Trump said. The real “bomb”, he only dropped after a while.
“We never needed them. They will say that they sent any troops to Afghanistan... and so they did, kept a small behind, a small out of the front line," said the president of the United States. The statement, and in peculiar the passage on "staying behind", was outraged, among others, in the UK. Over 400 British soldiers died in Afghanistan.
Gorycz was besides felt in Poland, which sent more than 33,000 soldiers to Afghanistan together – in all changes of PKW Afghanistan. Over 40 died in this mountainous country at the hands of the Taliban.
Andrzej Duda: Those who make the biggest fuss (...), until recently, they ran out of Polish uniform
Former president Andrzej Duda was asked to measure Donald Trump's words in a conversation in RMF FM studio. Duda stated that he saw nothing incorrect with the statements of the American leader.
"I see nothing in this message that would justify the word 'sorry', due to the fact that president Trump did not insult anyone," the erstwhile head of state said.
"If president Trump looks at this from the point of view of how the American army was active and how many American soldiers were killed, then no NATO army has any comparison in terms of losses with the American army," explained Andrzej Duda.
He stressed that it was good that Trump's "inscrutable and unfortunate" message met with the reaction of the Polish authorities. "Those who make the biggest fuss about it, are those who have until late mistreated the Polish uniform," the erstwhile president added.
