We request a strong army, solid alliances and unification in building the safety of our homeland – mentioned Donald Tusk during the speech on the Polish Army Day. The Prime Minister warned that Poland cannot number on a miracle. “There is no place for a miracle in defence strategies,” stressed the head of the Polish government.
Donald Tusk, president of the Council of Ministers, attended the celebrations of the Polish Army. Just before the beginning of the parade in Warsaw, he turned to soldiers, ensuring that they were highly crucial to all Poles. – With large pride present we all look at you, at Polish uniforms, at your faces, full of determination and courage, at your attitude all day. You are the salt of this land, you are in the hearts of all Polish and all Pole who loves his homeland. There can be no another way," said Donald Tusk.
The chief of government reminded that on 15 August we celebrate the anniversary of the Warsaw Battle. “We know that the full civilization of freedom survived thanks to this triumph and thanks to the victims of those days,” said Tusk and stressed that “the miracle over the Vistula” for Poles will always be a symbol of victory. But he should besides be a warning. In the Polish defence strategy, in the Polish strategy of triumph over the enemy, erstwhile the request arises, there can be no place to number on the miracle – the Prime Minister emphasized. – I would like to declare today, I think that on behalf of everyone – the President, you and your marshals, the generals, the command that we do together, together, all day everything so that Poland, so that Polish troops, Poles and Poles will never gotta number on a miracle again – assured the head of the government and stressed that Poland's safety should be based on a strong army, nation and strong alliances. – All Poles consist of building 1 of the largest European armies and defensive formations in the world. Without that, we won't have a chance. It's not adequate to spend quite a few money. You gotta spend all penny very wisely. And it is not due to the fact that it is the zloty of the Polish taxpayer, but besides due to the fact that our safety will depend on it," said Tusk.
The Prime Minister said that Poland must build an "innovative army". – We will spend quite a few money, as we do now, to make the Polish army the strongest. We will never leave Polish soldiers erstwhile the enemy is stronger. And not only due to the fact that the Polish soldier deserves it, but due to the fact that possibly the destiny of our homeland and our civilisation will depend on it," the Prime Minister argued. Tusk emphasized that Poland's strength is already national morale. We're all patriots. Different views. We came from different directions. But we are all here together present due to the fact that we all love Poland. And since we all love our homeland, we will be ready to defend it if necessary. And today, on this wonderful day, we combine our hearts and minds so that Poland is safe to live in a safe homeland – Donald Tusk concluded the speech.
