Details: Sikorski stressed that Poland respects the decision of the American people.
He noted that the relevancy of Poland’s foreign policy, which consists of maintaining political contacts with both Democrats and Republicans, has been confirmed.
Sikorski thanked both US presidential candidates – Donald Trump and Kamala Harris – for their kind words about Poland and for reaffirming the alliance between Warsaw and Washington.
Journalists reported that Sikorski had stressed that he is in constant contact with the highest security officials in the Trump team.
Quote: “Europe must immediately assume greater responsibility for its security with defence spending and migration policy decisions. Poland is doing what its allies will only begin to do.”
More details: Sikorski believes that with restored trust in the EU and good relations with the US, Poland will be a leader in increasing the EU’s resilience.
“The winds of history are blowing even stronger, and Polish leadership will fulfil its mission,” he concluded.
Background:
- The day before, it was reported that the European Union would determine its further position on aid to Ukraine depending on the results of the US elections, but the general line of support for Ukraine would remain unchanged.
- Several different models of the US presidential election results have predicted the victory of Republican candidate Donald Trump.
- Trump has already declared his victory in the presidential election and promised to fight every day for a “strong, safe and prosperous America”.
