Polish FM Faces Off with Putin Over Weapon Supply Rumble
Yesterday, Radosław Sikorski, Poland’s foreign minister, served a quick, snappy response to Vladimir Putin’s latest keening about Ukraine’s Western aid. He wasn’t shy about calling out Russia’s own procurement habits.
The Core Exchange
- Putin’s demand: Ukraine must halt mobilization and stop receiving Western military support in exchange for a ceasefire.
- Poland’s retort: “If Russia is worried about foreign weapons heading to Ukraine, it should stop buying them from Iran and North Korea.”
- Sikorski’s tweet: “If Russia is concerned about foreign military supplies during a proposed ceasefire with Ukraine it could take the lead by refusing deliveries of Iranian drones and North Korean artillery ammunition.”
Western Nations Stay in the Game
Despite Russia’s call for a pause, NATO and EU allies are keeping the wheels rolling on billions of dollars worth of aid.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reaffirmed: “We both agree that Ukraine can count on us, that Ukraine can count on Europe and that we will not let (Kyiv) down.”
French President Emmanuel Macron echoed this solidarity: “We will continue to support the Ukrainian army in its war of resistance against Russian aggression.”
What’s Next?
The situation remains tense. While Ukraine receives plentiful supplies, Russia’s own arms acquisition from Iran and North Korea seems to be a double‑edged sword—a public relations misstep even if it keeps its own forces stocked.
