The Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk, says Europe is entering a “prewar” era, cautioning that the continent is not ready and urging European countries to step up defence investment.
In an interview with a group of European newspapers reported by the BBC, Tusk said: “I don’t want to scare anyone, but war is no longer a concept from the past. It’s real and it started over two years ago.”
Tusk’s comments came days after a Russian missile briefly breached Polish airspace during a major attack on Ukraine, prompting Warsaw to put its forces on heightened readiness. Ukrainian officials have said large-scale Russian missile and drone attacks had targeted energy infrastructure.
Tusk has been using his platform to try to add a sense of urgency to Europe’s debates about defence and aid to Ukraine, amid fears about the future of American assistance and concerns about defence industrial capacity.
An endless war that Europe never sent enough weapons for to win but just drags on for years and now Putin is starting to win it.
Putin will still never invade a NATO country. The reason he attacked Ukraine in the first place is to prevent NATO expansion.
Putin will not take Ukraine, the people are way to strong for that, and they’re way to well armed at this point to try and occupy them.
You do sound like a russian troll though. Thinking a mad man with nukes and a bunch of brainwashed ignorant people who back him wouldn’t try and attack another EU country is hilarious.
Also br attacked Ukraine and NATO got two new members…worked out really well for him didn’t it.
