We all know that russia's attack on Ukraine is also an attack on Ukraine's friends and neighbors. We know very well that if this war ended badly, it would end badly not only for Ukraine, but also for Poland, for the whole of Europe, for the whole of the Western world. We, the Poles, are helping Ukraine out of our friendship and solidarity, but also out of our interest, because whoever defends Ukraine today is also defending themselves
