He adds the situation is becoming more complicated due to โthe antagonism between large straits of the Ukrainian population and the methods of recruitmentโ used by the Zelensky regime.

Poland is offended after being left out of key meetings on military aid to Ukraine and may block critical logistics routes, President Andrzej Duda said.
He added that Polandโs NATO allies act as if the airport in Rzeszow โ through which more than 95% of all Western aid to Ukraine passes โ belongs to them.
โIt's not theirs. It's ours. Therefore, if someone doesn't like something, we close it and say goodbye. Let them figure it out โ deliver the aid by sea, air, or just parachute it in," Duda stressed.
