President Andrzej Duda attended Ukrainian independency Day celebrations in Kiev. He wanted to and found time to be with Volodymyr Zelenski in Sofia Square on that day. He did not want and did not have time to participate in the unveiling of a monument dedicated to Polish victims of Ukrainian murders in Domastawa. It's very symbolic. The president besides said a fewer sentences in Ukrainian. Experts say that speaking Ukrainian is far better than speaking English. The evil ones indicate that even better than communicating in Polish.
President Andrzej Duda said, "Your day of independency is also, in a sense, the festival of independency of all Central Europe. For without independent Ukraine it is hard to think of independent and safe Poland.” He besides added a completely curiosity conviction "In Poland we know well that Ukraine has been part of the European community for centuries". I have a much bigger imagination than president Duda, due to the fact that I can imagine it without a problem. If president Duda knew the basic story, he would know that Poland existed and advised for centuries without Ukraine. What a centuries-old Ukrainian country president Duda was talking about – I have no idea.
President Duda repeatedly reiterated that Ukraine's place is in the western political-civilization circle. This is the conviction of almost the full political class in the III Republic. However, it is Kuriosistic that at the same time politicians of Law and Justice and Sovereign Poland lamented the anti-civilisation direction which the European Union and the Western planet mostly chose. They spoke of the rainbow revolution, the attacks on the family, the blurring of basic definitions or the deficiency of respect for human life in the EU with large concern and unhindered reluctance. To a large extent, the Kaczyński camp is right about this. In this case, however, it is crucial to ask whether they truly want the people of Ukraine well?
The Kiev celebrations were not attended by leading politicians from the United States, large Britain, the European Union. Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenski stood alongside Andrzej Duda and Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte. Photographs from these celebrations, the lonely politicians of the 3 countries, show the actual attitude of the US and the European Union to Ukraine and its place in the Euro-Atlantic world. The West supports Ukraine with arms supplies and fiery declarations fortifying their spirit. The promised membership of the Euro-Atlantic structures symbolizes the President's presence, ending his word and the Prime Minister of Lithuania. Let's face it, a country not necessarily a military-economic giant. Ukraine is simply a value to the Collective West as an aspiring and trying state and belonging. However, president Duda managed to become the face of the Euro-Atlantic policy towards Ukraine.
Ukraine celebrates its independency by fighting its east neighbour, mainly in the geopolitical interest of Anglo-Saxons and financial oligarchs (also frequently non-Ukrainian). However, it is simply a substance of Ukraine and we have nothing to do with Poles. Our problem lies elsewhere. Poland was the first country to recognise the independency of Ukraine. We did not get any benefits from it. The Polish State and the many Poles, as 1 of the first countries, have given us a comprehensive and many support during the war. We have no benefit from it. On the another hand, we inactive bear immense costs.
The authorities in Poland have always supported Ukraine for 33 years. besides erstwhile it was essential to stick with Ukrainian politics as far as possible – for example erstwhile president Viktor Yanukovych was overthrown. The real benefits of this support have been almost asymptomatic for 3 decades. The rulers could not even enforce the anticipation of exhumation and the burial of a immense crowd of our countrymen murdered cruelly by Ukrainians from 1939 to 1947. Our authorities with their heads down accepted the fact that flagism became part of Ukrainian state ideology, and Ukrainian authorities lay flowers under the monuments of Poles' murderers. The war which is taking place in the territory of Ukraine has made the Polish authorities completely helpless, and according to the erstwhile spokesperson of the Ministry of abroad Affairs Łukasz Jasina we became servants of the Ukrainian people. In the name of falsely understood neighbourly relations, Polish authorities have devoted a large part of the Polish budget to Ukraine, as well as jobs and expected profits of our compatriots.
Ukraine doesn't have much to celebrate. There's a war on her land with Russia. There is no end to this conflict. The cemeteries are planted in the graves of young people. The state is depopulated by emigration. The economy lies and depends on external factors. A large part of national property – mainly land – was taken over by foreigners. The debts of the state and the profits of the oligarchs are growing. The Ukrainian state is in deep collapse and will stay so for decades. Ukrainians will feel this and their frustration will grow. Future objections will be directed to those who were the face of pro-war politics. To the average Ukrainian, disappointed hopes and poorness will be associated with the Polish commitment to conflict which causes misfortune. Ukrainians in any sense will be complaining about Poland. The symbol of this will be Andrzej Duda.
