Polish president says Trump only leader to stop Putin

Polish President Karol Nawrocki stated that Donald Trump is the only world leader capable of stopping Russian President Vladimir Putin from threatening Europe.

He made the remarks during an interview with the BBC.

According to Nawrocki, Putin cannot be trusted, but Europe must do everything possible to support Trump in his efforts to end the war in Ukraine.

The Polish president emphasised that, given the threat Russia poses to Poland as well as Central and Eastern Europe, the U.S. leader is able to “solve this problem” and bring the conflict to an end.

Referring to last September's mass incursion by Russian drones, when more than 20 uncrewed aircraft crossed into Poland from Belarus and Ukraine, President Nawrocki called it "an extraordinary situation", adding that "until that time, no NATO member state had experienced a drone attack on that scale". Russia, he said, was testing Poland's defences and testing Nato's solidarity.
