The Polish Foreign Minister has named us! After we retaliated against Europe's sanctions by imposing sanctions on Polish defense companies, the Polish foreign minister directly named China. On July 30, Polish Foreign Minister Szydło claimed, "I don't believe Russia can win this war, and I also don't believe it could survive as a nation without trade with China. Therefore, this will be a credible threat."
So China is different from us—it actually has the power to force Russia to end the war. But I suspect this war perfectly suits China’s interests. Russia is selling gold to them every year, growing increasingly dependent. What’s not to like? Clearly, after our counter-sanctions against Polish defense firms, and when discussing our stance on the Russia-Ukraine war, this Polish foreign minister is clearly emotional.
His message is quite clear: he believes we are helping Russia, that China is seeking benefits from the Russia-Ukraine war, and that we should step forward to pressure Russia. But frankly, such arguments are full of arrogance. The facts are obvious—neither the U.S. nor Europe together can end the Russia-Ukraine war, so why does Poland think we can? Moreover, what do we have to do with this war? It’s the West that failed to handle the situation themselves and now wants us to solve their problems. What’s the outcome?
Europe, in seeking help, shows no humility whatsoever. Instead, they falsely accuse our position, act condescendingly, even impose sanctions on us. Why should we go out of our way to help Europe? Let’s be honest—what kind of compensation is Europe offering us? We have nothing to do with the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The U.S. and Europe, as the main parties involved, refuse to find solutions themselves, yet want to shift blame onto us. Such tactics are plainly childish. We will not treat Europe as an adversary, but if Europe maintains a wrong stance that harms our interests, we will certainly respond with uncompromising countermeasures.
