At this moment, Donald Trump is running for president and we must take into account the fact that the language of communication during the campaign is significantly different from real politics – emphasized Błażej Poboży, advisor to President Andrzej Duda, in the program ‘Woronicza 17’ on neo -TVP Info, referring to Donald Trump’s statement.
Trump’s words about NATO
Let us recall that during an election rally in South Carolina, Donald Trump reported a conversation with one of NATO’s heads of state, but did not mention his name.
A president of a major country asked me: Sir, if we don’t pay and we are attacked by Russia, will you protect us? I replied: No, I will not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them (Russia) to do whatever they want to you. You have to pay
– said Trump.
The issue was mentioned in the program ‘Woronicza 17’ by Błażej Poboży, advisor to President Andrzej Duda, who was also asked in neo-TVP Info about the president’s words in one of the interviews, where he said: ‘If I have any President Donald Trump’s promise, if President Donald Trump promised me something, it was kept. (…) I can say: yes, President Trump keeps his word. When he says something, he takes it seriously.”
Błażej Poboży emphasized that President Andrzej Duda pointed to his relations with Donald Trump when he was the sitting US president.
If we look at the decisions and relations that existed between our countries at that time, this was certainly a period of the greatest friendship between Poland and the US. All obligations entered into have been fulfilled
– said the adviser to the president.
The language of the election campaign
Poboży also pointed out that “Donald Trump is currently running for president, he is in opposition to President Biden, who will run for re-election.”
We must always bear in mind that the language of communication during an election campaign differs significantly from real politics. Please allow me a little sarcasm. If we were to take all the promises made in the election campaign seriously, I think that today we would be halfway through the implementation of 100 specific features of KO, but this is not the case
– the politician pointed out.
Commitments to NATO
In response to Trump saying that Russia can do anything to NATO countries that do not pay enough, President Duda’s adviser pointed out that Trump’s speech can be parsed, but it can reduce everything to a very academic discussion.
In my opinion, Trump’s speech refers to the countries not increasing defense funds. This does not apply to Poland, because thanks to the rule of law, military expenditure has increased, and this is a blow to a country that in the past pursued a policy focused on relations with Russia, that is, Germany.
– said Błażej Poboży.
