Andrzej Duda's ten-minute visit to the United States became a media sketch, which was not predictable. akin scenarios were reworked respective times, with a full package of ritual behaviors. all time a demonstration comes out on the streets math is raped by political estimates and numbers replace expectations. Who met with who and who hadn't met was the same sport, just a small different competition, like counting gathering time.
According to this diagram, president Andrzej Duda's visit to the US last night, whose most crucial point, however, was not only an unofficial gathering with president Donald Trump. The conversation between the 2 gentlemen was planned at 19:30 Polish time, but began almost an hr later and lasted at most a twelve minutes, which became an excuse for a 1000 malicious comments, which the authors completely did not realize or did not want to realize what they were commenting on. Therefore, almost all accounts of this meeting, longer and shorter, focus on acts of loyalty to the political environment alternatively of focusing on facts.
What are the facts? It's completely different than opinions, and first of all. Secondly, we did not have an authoritative visit by the president of Poland to the White House, but an informal gathering of 2 politicians, well-connected, who received invitations to the same Conservative Political Action Conference. The right-wing part of the media, by its custom, blew this almost social visit to the rank of the state's reason, on the another hand we heard ludicrous opinions about the humiliation of the president of Poland and of all Poland. Both positions have nothing to do with reality.
Indeed, in the politics of "diplomatic late" it has its pronunciation and is premeditatedly used, for example Vladimir Putin did so to Recep Erdogan and rapidly regretted it, due to the fact that the president of Turkey rematched. Only that it was an component of the game of hostile politicians, which is simply a completely different configuration than with Duda and Trump. Why would Donald Trump be late to humiliate Andrzej Duda, who he later called a “great friend”? There has been no humiliation, simply the president of the United States is at the minute the most popular and busy politician in the world, yet he has found time for a motion of relationship and at the same time thanking the Polish voters. On the occasion, regular words concerning common relations and guarantees were made, as the White home officially reported:
Backstage at CPAC, president Trump met with president Andrzej Duda of Poland and reaffirmed our close alliance. president Trump besides praised president @AndrzejDuda for Poland’s commitment to increase their defence spending. pic.twitter.com/KAim69RXoe

That's it! That's it! If, by any miracle, Polish journalistic elites on the right and left had at least erstwhile thought to print something real, alternatively of a political order, present no 1 would have laughed at president Andrzej Duda, nor would he have preached nonsense about a landmark for the state of visit. We had a short, courteous visit, on the occasion of the Conservative Political Action Conference, and it shows that Donald Trump and Andrzej Duda talked about what was going on, like 2 good friends in the break of the match.
We don't believe in anyone, we don't believe in anything! We look at facts and draw conclusions!
