Between admiration and disappointment: Poland torment bothered with a tramp – the world

Polish President Andrjah Duda Since-Poto wanted it to be the first European leader to meet with the new American President Donald Tramp. The two connects the close relationship from the Tramp's first term (2017-2021), during which the Duda had exclusive access to the American President. Even during the election campaign 2024. Duda demonstrably visited the tramp. However, it is not Christmas every day, so this Dudina has turned the United States into Fiasco.

Tramp is its Polish guest on Saturday, 22. February 2025. year, left to wait for an hour and a half, after which he dedicated him less than ten minutes to talk. Also, the meeting was not held in the White House, but on the margins of the conservative political action conference (CPAC) near Washington.

Impatient duda

Live television cameras transmitted that the duda is impatiently waiting in Vip-Salon at the American president who is late. After that, the Polish President from the first order applauded Tramp's speech at the CPAC conference. During speech, Tramp called the Dudu « Fantastic Man » and praised him for 84 percent of Poles who live in the United States voted for him.

However, the difference in relation to the reception on Monday 24. February in the White House had French President Emanuel Macron is huge: the guest of Paris was received with all diplomatic honors, in front of the cameras and journalists, in an oval cabinet. After that, a joint press conference was held.

« It was a humiliation and cold shower for the Polish president, » Jacek Niznikjevic wrote in the list of Ržečpospolita. Tramp, claimed, treated the Dud as a « chrome duck », that is, a politician who goes with power and no longer influence in his country. « In the new world, Donald Tramp, Poland from the American perspective is neither a subject, let alone a key player, » the paper states.

However, at a press conference after a meeting with a tramp, Duda tried to leave the impression that the visit was still successful. He stated that the United States plans to reinforce, and in no way to reduce his military presence in Poland and that Trump said that « he was not worried », because Poland is one of the most faithful American allies.

Duda avoided any criticism of Tramp, and the head of his cabinet, Marchin Mastalarek told the return from Washington, « We achieved everything we wanted. » He claimed that the meeting was « very good. » And the director of the Polish Institute of International Relations (Pismo) Jaroslav Cvjek-Karpovič defended the Duda, emphasizing that the meeting was important, because « at the tramp every second is important. »
Poland in an unenviable situation

But for many, a failed visit depicts a dilemma in which Poland is currently located. As a country on the eastern wing NATO, Poland in America sees the most important, if not the only reliable guarantee of its security. At the same time, Poland supports Ukraine in her fight against Russia from the first day – regardless of who is in power in Warsaw. Because, in Poland, the Imperial Plans of Vladimir Putina are experiencing as an existential threat.

The new tramp course towards Ukraine and its conciliatory gestures according to Putin are causing concern in Poland. Tramps closeness with Russia and his criticism of Ukraine lead the Dudina Conservative Party and Justice (PIS) into an awkward position – between admiration of the tramp and loyalty to Ukraine.

Kacinjski defends Jay Di Vance

After many criticisms from the world to the account of the American Vice President Jaj Vens at the Munich Security Conference, the leader of Pis Jaroslav Kacinjski stood in his defense. « Poland has a choice: or it will become a leader of European rapprochement with tramp administration, or will inspire antia American forces in Europe, » Kacinjski said. He added that Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk « shows that he would rather be the leader of the anti-American rebellion in Europe. »

It is true that the artistic centrist government is difficult to carry with the new American administration. That is why Tusk is 17. February 2025. participated in the conference in Paris, which called Macron, where European countries discussed how to respond if they suspend the support of Ukraine. However, the Polish government does not intend to end good relations with Washington.

Poland – Example in defense

The new American administration, however, shows certain sympathies towards Poland. The American Defense Minister Pit Hegset first visited Warsaw and did not spare praise first. Poland, said, a state that best understands the United States and could be a bridge between America and Europe.

And the American Special Envoy for Ukraine, General Kit Kelog, went to Warsaw first, before he headed for Kiev. Poland is valid for the Simpling NATO allies – this year he plans to set aside 4.7 percent of GDP for defense, and more than 10,000 US soldiers are stationed on its territory. The United States is also the main weapon supplier for the Polish Army, while the Polish is a key logistics center for the supply of Ukraine to Western weapons.

The US remains a guarantor of Polish security

From the Polish perspective, the United States remains a key guarantor of security. However, the recent statements of the Leaders of the German Christian-Democratic Union (CDU) and the probable future chancellor Fredriha Merca, provoked concern in Warsaw. After the election, Merc said that his priority was to strengthen European independence from the United States and that the issue of whether NATO would survive in the present form at all.

However, in one, the Polish government and the opposition agreed: No Polish soldier should participate in the peacekeeping mission in Ukraine. The face of the presidential elections in May and June, public pressure is too great. According to the IBRIS Institute survey, 76.2 percent of Poles oppose the sending of soldiers, while only 17.8 percent support the idea.

Regardless of the humiliation in Washington, the duda remains a faithful tramp. « Tramp will not sell Ukraine, » Polish president for television Polsat News on Monday night.
