Poland in a fresh geopolitical rift
In conversation on the show More Poland editor Newsweeka Jacek Pawlicki analyses the consequences of the fresh American National safety Strategy. The document, he says, "breaks up with many points that have linked the US to Europe for decades".
"General America is leaving" Pawlicki emphasizes."Europe must take care of itself due to the fact that Americans will focus on Indo-Pacific".
Wyszogrodka recalls that the signals of this change had already been seen, including in the speech of Vice president J.D. Vance in Munich, where he accused Europe of "distorting freedom of speech" and announced a simplification in American commitment to the safety of the continent.

The U.S. and Russia play to weaken the Union?
Pawlicki points out that unofficial extensions of the strategies suggested that the US may effort to "take out" individual countries from the Union – including Poland, Italy, Hungary and Austria.
“It lit my red light” – he says."If 2 powers – Russia and the US – play for the dissolution of the Union, this is deadly serious to us".
Wyszogrodka adds that in Poland there is inactive no awareness of the danger:
"Eurostat shows that half of Europeans see a threat in Trump. In Poland – only all fifth.”Dependence on American weapons
One of the key problems, according to Pawlicki, is the immense dependence of the Polish army on U.S. equipment.
“We do not know if the F–35 will even take off if Trump deals with Putin” – he says."These are machines that Americans can block with 1 code".
Wyszogrodka adds that even NATO command modules in Poland are full operated by Americans. Their withdrawal could paralyze the operational capabilities of the alliance in the region.
US Ambassador and Nationalist Narration
The US Ambassador Tom Rose besides appears in the conversation, who, as Pawlicki notes, “presents himself as Ambassador Donald Trump alternatively than the United States”.
Wyszogrodka quotes his words from Hanuki in the Sejm:
"Defend yourself, your culture, your identity. Let Poland stay strong.”In her opinion, it is "a wink to national environments" that strengthens anti-EU narrative.
Listen.
Poland must choose the direction
Pawlicki emphasizes that the government cannot indefinitely balance between Brussels and Washington:
"You can't ride 2 horses. We must have an alternate in case America changes course completely."In his opinion, the future of Poland is clear:
"Here is our civilizational development. The future of Poland is in the European Union."Growing support for the far right
Wyszogrodka points out that in Poland there is increasing support for anti-EU groups:
"25% of voters want to vote against the Union. This fits perfectly with the Confederate and Braun electorate."Pawlicki warns that this is not a margin:
"This is simply a dangerous alarm bell. But we cannot give patriotism to the far right.”“Poland is simply a wonderful place to live”
Despite alarming diagnosis, Pawlicki concludes the conversation optimistically:
‘No reason to pack your bags. Poland is simply a wonderful place to live. I have traveled the full planet – I know what I am saying.”watch the full program
