It’s just because Poland has a russophilic president
@
The rift between the USA and EU is way more dangerous... The euro currentcy is competitor of the dollars. Beside! The weapons that the EU will produced will not be purchased from the USA.. and the USA will not get money from Europe for these weapons... So prepare for conflict😢😢
@
Is this a deal breaker? Or will other mutual interest overwrite this?
@
When exactly are they going to start telling the truth about those events ??? It's like talking about the destruction of the 2nd Temple in Jerusalem by the Romans without telling exactly what events had led to that, what was going on in the process. Giving not all details distorts the broad picture observed by the rest of the world.
@
I really dont understand why PUTIN is being mentioned here. The guy lives rent free in your minds.
Just like Russia has been saying, Ukraine is a cesspol of NAZIsm, but the West doesnt care, as long as they are a willing tool to fight against Russia
@
The problem is soviet mentality of Ukrainians, mixed with extreme nationalism and super corrupted elites.
@
Sometimes the fight makes the heart fonder , without oppositions in life things wouldn't happen to be learned the way they are . Everything has its opposite , better than opposing mindset can be forgiven and move on but material oppositions won't ,arms , ordinance , Southern mistakes don't repeat .!!
@
Poland's leadership is objectively compromised. There is absolutely no reason such an old and petty argument would be coming up right now.

It was A CENTURY AGO
@
Blah blah blah, just blame Russia already

Let's hear from Polish and Ukrainian people tell their 'story' instead of u 🇺🇸🇮🇪

That's one small issue I have with Zelensky, he does not know when to hold back his ego, just look at him firing Fedorov

Since when does eu leaders have to bend to Zelensky’s will? For a country that is surviving on the aid sent from eu countries , Zelensky is absolutely ungrateful and problematic.
It feels like the eu politicians now work for Zelensky . Do they not have a spine to stand against him. Zelensky brought war to Ukraine by lack of diplomacy in his policies. He will bring war and disunity to Europe too . I dont understand why people think Zelensky is a hero when he is a villain too. He might be for his country but eu doesn’t need to change their morals for Zelensky . If Zelensky wants money and weapons aid and to join the eu, then Zelensky should be the one who obeys the eu policies .

So by such reports Germans Solved Thier own problems😂😂while ignites others issues by pathetic reports. 😂😂😂
@
Stupidity reigns free
@
Zelenski after all is not that smart
@
Ooooohhhhh, props!
@
Sounds like a mistake but they have done just fine when the us turned its back. I think they will find a way if Poland temporarily withdraws some support.
@
Your reporters don't look professional at all, DW 👎🏻.

We do not justify the killing of civilians. But let's face it: since 1919 when Poland occupied west of Ukraine and for 20 years Poland waged an open war against Ukrainian identity. It closed schools, destroyed churches, beat peasants in pacifications, threw Ukrainian intelligentsia into concentration camps, and settled our lands with military colonists. The Polish state itself sowed the seeds of that terrible hatred that later exploded during the war. Both countries must acknowledge the sins of their past, and as you cherish your Army Krajowa who killed so many Ukrainians including women and kids, Ukraine also has a right to cherish their heroes especially at this very hard time when Ukraine is having the full scale war with Russia.

Lol, blame it on Putin when Voldermort is spitting in your face. 😂😂😂

When the far right loses power in Poland, this “issue”’ will disappear completely
