Russia’s neo-imperialism is destabilizing Europe, warned Polish Prime Minister Matthew Moravecki, while describing Moscow’s demands for NATO as unrealistic.
“Russia’s neo-imperialism is returning before our eyes, threatening to destabilize the European Union,” the prime minister said on Twitter on Sunday. “The increase in Russia’s military presence and unrealistic demands on NATO’s future have received a clear and decisive response – unwavering support for Ukraine.”
“I am going to visit Kiev,” the head of government said.
Moravetsky will visit the Ukrainian capital on Tuesday, and talks with senior state officials, including President Volodymyr Zelensky, told the Polish government’s spokesman, Peter Miller, on Saturday.
For several weeks now, tensions over the concentration of Russian troops on Ukraine’s borders have been easing, raising concerns about preparations for another Russian invasion in Kiev and the West.
Russia denies allegations of an invasion of Ukraine by its troops. According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Moscow is taking a defensive stance because of fears that Kiev is getting too close to NATO.
At a video summit on December 7, US President Joe Biden warned Putin that the United States would impose unprecedented sanctions on Russia if it attacked Ukraine.
