– No government has fallen from air strikes. And the West may get tired faster than its opponents," says General Roman Polko, erstwhile GROM commander. As she points out, nothing can be accomplished in Iran now without land troops entering.
– This is simply a immense question mark. I alternatively anticipate consequences longer than 4 weeks – he adds. And as he stresses, in order to overthrow this regime, 1 must have an thought of how Iran would function after this regime.
"What threatens us after the overthrow of the government is civilian war in Iran itself and even more destabilisation. We do not want that – warns General Polko.
Putin covers his hands
According to the gene. The consequences of the conflict were felt almost immediately, including in Europe. The key here is the emergence in oil prices after tensions in the Strait of Ormuz. Russia is happy due to the fact that oil prices have gone off. This is Putin's dream – the entanglement of the United States in that area and a distraction from Ukraine – emphasizes the general.
Polko besides reduces expectations of the impact on Iran itself. Even if it was spectacular, it's not a breakthrough yet. It's an awesome hit, but it's just emotion. This does not translate into overthrowing the regime.
– Talking about Iran's society going to go out on the street and overthrow the authorities, goes incorrect with realism. Earlier protests were brutally suppressed, and the Iranians see how the “Western interventions” in the region ended – in Iraq, Afghanistan or Syria. After the Americans left, the ISIS state was created, which was an even bigger problem than Saddam Hussein – reminds General Polko.
Poland must talk with 1 voice
In the face of the global crisis, Gen. Roman Polko does not leave a dry thread on interior political disputes in Poland. In his opinion, the breakdown between the government and the president is simply a immense mistake for both offices.
– They should not just declare that they talk with 1 voice – they should truly build a coherent plan. I would lock them in 1 room, about water and bread, for a week or 2 – let them yet communicate – the general thunders.
"Trump is disconnected from reality"
Deputy Prime Minister and head of MON Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz are going to the US. According to the gene. Romana Polko Polish authorities should usage the current situation to build the right position, both in Brussels and Washington.
– president Trump's problem is that he listens most to his own voice and besides a small bit like Putin is disconnected from reality. We should be able to play all our assets diplomatically. You can't just pay tribute to president Trump. We request to talk to him so that he does not lose sight of the east flank of NATO," the general emphasizes.
The gene. Polko has no illusions about the nature of Iran's government and he evaluates it highly negatively, but indicates that long-term war may be the worst possible scenario.
– Better to deal with them than to wage a long-term war that will increase destruction," he emphasises.
The planet has entered a high-risk phase, and chaos in the mediate East can translate straight into the safety of Europe and Poland. And as General Roman Polko emphasizes – present more than ever, unity is needed, not political games.
