Jacek Bartosiak talks to Gen (ret) Ben Hodges (frmr Commander US Army Europe) on strategic landscape in Europe

I believe that Chciałbym powiedzieć, że tak, oczywiście, wierzyłem w to całe swoje profesjonalne życie, ale teraz, po pierwszym razie w moim życiu, to administracja USA sprawia, że ludzie się zastanawiają, a więc, oczywiście, jest niebezpieczeństwo. Czy Rosja zrobiła przeglądy, robiąc to? Często wierzę, Most nations of Europe would absolutely respond, whether it was with or without a NATO mandate, with or without the US being a part of it. Because I think you know, and I'm talking about from Finland down to the Baltics to Poland, you know what the price is if we don't.

Sure, I'm not concerned about the intermarium countries that you have just mentioned. Finland, Sweden, Baltic States, Poland, Ukraine and even maybe further south. But is it a fair opinion that United States behavior these days is creating this space for the Russians for probing strategy Providing that they can control escalation, that they will Jacek Bartosiak, Hodges.

That's why it's so important that I think what I said at the beginning, defeat Russia first. Make it the national policy of Poland, Germany, all the countries of Europe, that Ukraine defeats Russia, defeats them, that Russia is forced out of Ukraine, including Crimea of course, not some better negotiating position. Mhm. To jest prawda. Co myślisz o sytuacji w Ukrainie w zależności od wojny, prospekcji na zimę i zimę?
