“You can be an anti -government opposition, but not a flood” “

According to Lewandowski, voters against the resolution “did not take advantage of the opportunity to rehabilitate too much shameful voting in the European Parliament.”

He referred to the resolution adopted last week regarding the strengthening of EU defense. It contains a provision recognizing the east shield as a flagship project for the joint security of the European Union. The document underwent a vulnerable majority of votes (419 to 204), but it was not supported by, among others MEPs of PiS and the Confederation.

As the TVN24 guest assessed “you can be an anti -government opposition, but not a flood.” According to him, parliamentarians “have Polish duties, and the Polish duty today is security built in the strength of 27 countries.”

He also argued that “the Solidarity generation has freed Poland from the curse of geopolitics, which had been on previous generations for centuries, through the NATO collective security system since 1999 and the huge civilization opportunities that we have been using in the European Union since 2004”.

– This is the crossing of this curse of geopolitics. And it seems to me that (Jarosław – ed.) Kaczyński would like to lead Poland ahead with his head turned backwards. As if he wanted to get away again, this Polish loneliness of the 1930s (20th century, before the outbreak of World War II – ed.), When we were conflicted with everyone – he added.

“Giant wakes up”

Lewandowski also talked about what flows from the one started on Thursday the peak of the leaders of the EU Member States in Brussels. The meeting agenda included talks about the details of the defense financing plan in the Union, but also about the possibilities of quick support Ukraineincl. in the field of ammunition.

– I would like this to happen like once, when Admiral (Isoroku – ed.) Yamamoto said after an effective attack on Pearl Harbor said, and warned his compatriots into this success: we woke up a giant – admitted the Eurodeput KO.

According to him, “indeed, this giant wakes up in the form of high economic potential, which is Europe – ten times greater than Russia's potential, political potential, unfortunately also regulatory.”

– But for me, as a man who has been in this for many years, is something new that he also adds this military potential. Because for 20 years I was a participant in the program to thoroughly pacifist: NATO It was from security, the European Union from civilization and economic matters – he pointed out.

To be careful that at the top you can accept various conclusions, but it is important to act here and now, Lewandowski replied that “for the European Union, it is rush”. – I see this increase in European leaders. They meet in defense issues – he noted.
