Third Polish policy towards Ukraine is simply a disaster

I'm starting to seriously fear an uncontrolled conflict with Ukraine. With an emphasis on uncontrolled. president Karol Nawrocki, however, took the order of the White Eagle from the president of Ukraine. I already stopped believing he would. However, I am not happy with this fact, due to the fact that the escalation of the Polish-Ukrainian conflict is just beginning, as I wrote in the last text. Worse still, this conflict on the part of at least Poland is not controlled. What will that lead to? This is almost comical. Ukrainian dignitaries decorated with Polish orders are mass returnable. Polish decorations will fly any minute across the border with Ukraine alternatively of Ukrainian drones and rockets. I hope there's no effect, like in the Wire. On the net they ask whether in turn Tomasz Sakiewicz will give the Ukrainians the order from their security. I wonder who hung more of this iron and how much it will fly through the Polish-Ukrainian border. I imagine that more will be given to the Ukrainians, which will again show who has whom in deeper respect.

It was not essential to be peculiarly perceptive to anticipate specified a crisis. The Polish side owes itself. Naïveness, or alternatively foolishness mixed with betrayal, caused the governments of the Law and Justice to quit unconditional aid Ukraine despite the fact that from the beginning Ukrainians had no sincerely friendly intentions of Poland. Since the beginning of the war with Russia, Ukrainians have been guided by their own interests, without the slightest intention to take into account any Polish interests. They could afford this even more, as there were no demands or conditions on the Polish side. That's what happens when, without the slightest effort, you get everything you want from someone, and you don't gotta pay for it in any way, and then you come to the conclusion that it's all just right, and the donor who agrees to it is simply a common loser who can be utilized indefinitely. The governments of PiS and PO and its coalitions led to this situation in Polish-Ukrainian relations. Also, a large part of the Polish society sank into this amok. Moreover, Poles allowed Ukrainians not only to master themselves and manifestly abuse the kindness of Poles, but besides to insult Polish historical memory of Ukrainian genocide from the OUN-UPA. A abrupt change in this situation will awaken and already spark anger in the Ukrainians. They think they're being taken distant from something that's undisputed. If there were large decks of dislike towards Poles among Ukrainians, now they will grow more rapidly due to the fact that Poles want to take what they gave and asked to take. There's no area for gratitude. It leaves a gap where more and more resentment and anger turn into hatred.

Poles begin to wake up and ask for their interests. The case with the removal of the award to president Włodzimierz Zeleński showed the scale of gloating and increasing Polish pretensions. It could be an avalanche stone. It is dangerous that on the Polish side no 1 will control this avalanche. No major political centre in Poland has any plan to prosecute a different policy towards Ukraine. I have written about this respective times, that there are no political, scientific, business circles in Ukraine, and no Polish government has done anything about it. The other is in Poland. Proukrainian, even servolylist towards Ukraine political forces and various environments considered to be opinionative, so far dominate Polish public life. There is no another policy for Ukraine after them. Meanwhile, there has already been an urgent request to construct a policy that will control the rapidly increasing reluctance of the public to present relations with Ukraine and turn it into a thoughtful and consistently implemented policy, consistent with the Polish national interest. It should be remembered that the situation is that this policy does not concern only Polish-Ukrainian relations, but has a very large translation into Poland's position in the European Union, NATO and most surely requires different treatment of Polish-Russian relations. As you can see, the substance is urgent, and it is not evident that the governing coalition and the PiS have understood this need.

Today it is clear that the policy towards Ukraine has been a disaster. Its effect is the growing, energetic common dislike of Poles and Ukrainians. I think of the categories of Polish national interest, so I am convinced that this situation must not be left unchecked and it must be arranged as shortly as possible. My concern is that I do not believe that the ruling coalition or the PiS will be able to propose effective solutions, and time is accelerating. So far, Poland has lost. The increasing part of the Polish society is demanding the reconstruction of the independent national position of Poland in accordance with the interest of the Polish people. Can he force it on politicians?
