Asked if there was a risk that Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin could attack the alliance, Duda replied: "I think Russia is exhausted by its aggression against Ukraine."
"I don't expect Russia to be ready to attack other countries now. But in the future, this is a real risk, so we must prepare and increase defense spending, because this is absolutely necessary for our defense."
