This issue was commented on by the guests of Thursday's edition of “Fakty po Faktach” – Dr. Agnieszka Bryc from the Faculty of Political and Security Sciences of the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń and the president of the Foundation. Kazimierz Pułaski Zbigniew Pisarski. They were asked about this statement by Trump in the context of his previous announcements about a quick end to the war if he were re-elected to the presidency.
– His words were verified by the Russians themselves, because both Putin and his spokesman Peskov said: it will not be 48 hours, it will not be 24 hours, this conflict cannot be resolved simply, in one moment – emphasized Dr. Bryc.
– What he says is absolutely iconoclastic Ukraine is gone. How despicable it is towards a nation that defends its sovereignty, from the mouth of the former president of a country that is the cradle of democracy, or at least presents itself that way, Pisarski noted. – And I think President Trump would also like to present himself this way, so it's very brutal. Using these emotions is very focused on internal and national politics, and unfortunately, it is pathetic – he added.

“If Trump doesn't understand that, that's very concerning to us.”
Agnieszka Bryc noted that “Russians also know and emphasize what happens in every speech of former President Trump.” – He always provides additional information, and Russians like it very much, that President Zelensky, whenever and whenever he visits Washington, returns with pockets full of financial support, and that he is the best trader in the world, she said.
As the TVN24 host continued, “Trump wants to present this war, and he presents it effectively in terms of trade, in terms of only some quantitative issues, land, money.” – And then it is easy for him to convince those who are still unconvinced – she added.
Pisarski also pointed out that “Trump also does not understand that Ukraine's victory in the conflict with Russia is in the American interest.” – And if he doesn't understand it, it's disturbing for us. Because if he does not see these interests in the region, then for Poland, which is a neighbor of this country, it is at least a yellow, if not a red light bulb in the context of the upcoming elections – he noted.
