Polish PM warns of "difficult months" as Ukraine war enters decisive phase

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has warned that “difficult and challenging weeks and months” lie ahead for everyone, not just Ukraine.

Speaking on the sidelines of the Carpathian Summit at the presidential residence in Huta, Ukraine, Tusk said the war of attrition against Ukraine’s economy appeared to be entering a decisive phase, Caliber.Az reports, citing Ukrainian media.

He said Russian attacks were now targeting not only Ukraine’s energy infrastructure but also its industrial sector.

Tusk also said recent developments near Poland’s border were causing concern.

Poland and other countries were preparing for various scenarios, he said, including more dramatic ones.

“We are talking about possible scenarios, not about what will necessarily happen,” Tusk said. “But today, no one can say with 100 per cent certainty what will happen.”
