Member of the European Parliament Stanisław Tyszka on the programme Guest Events in Polsat News.
– In the coming weeks, months may decide the key issue for the safety of Poland for the coming years. This is simply a substance of sending NATO troops to Ukraine. I think this is absolutely fundamental and in this context presidential elections are very important.
Poland should never, under any circumstances, send its troops to Ukraine due to the fact that we have a very long border with Russia and Belarus. We're in the process of transforming our troops. We should not be drawn into this war!
And there is only 1 candidate from those who submitted to these presidential elections – Sławomir Mentzen – who says clearly and clearly that he will never agree as president to send Polish troops.
I am afraid that the candidate of both the PO and the Law and Justice Party, inclined by our allies, would agree to send Polish troops to Ukraine.
Polish soldier cannot stand on Ukrainian land! – MEP @stitch shows that Poland's interests and citizens' safety are the highest precedence for us!

What I inform our viewers about – and I say it very seriously – is that the Tusk candidate and the Kaczyński candidate will make a good face for the next fewer months. They'll cheat Poles. They will say, "No, we will not send troops," and then they will be elected and will agree to that.
The president has limited powers in Poland, but it is the president who decides to send Polish troops abroad. Who are the Russians going to provoke at the minute erstwhile they'll be there? French troops, Spanish troops or Polish troops? Of course, Polish troops.
Because Russia and Ukraine can have a common interest here – they want to bring Poland into all this. And we request to be smarter than that for the first time.
Therefore, we must say NO to the PiS candidate and the Platform candidate and support Sławomir Mentzen, who is the only 1 who guarantees it.
