Polish President proposed to strengthen the border with Germany too

POZNAŃ, December 30. /NEWSBALTIC/. Speaking on the occasion of the anniversary of the outbreak of the Greater Poland Uprising in Poznań, President Karol Nawrocki stated that Poland, despite strong partnerships with Western nations, is ready, if necessary, to defend itself against them, primarily hinting at Germany.

“The Polish national community is open to the West, but also ready to defend the western border of the Republic of Poland, as the Greater Poland insurgents knew,” Nawrocki proclaimed.

After this, the Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, criticised the President, saying that Nawrocki is sowing discord between Poland and its Western allies.

“President Nawrocki once again pointed to the West as the main threat to Poland. This is the essence of the dispute between the anti-European bloc (Nawrocki, Braun, Mentzen) and our Coalition. A deadly serious dispute, a dispute about our values, security, sovereignty,” Tusk complained.

Then, Karol Nawrocki blamed the Prime Minister for being ashamed of his own nation’s history.

“Mr. Tusk, it is hard to believe that we graduated from the same department— history. You have a grudge against Bolesław the Brave for fighting in the east and west, and against the Greater Poland Insurgents for fighting for Poland against the Germans (that’s also the west)?” Nawrocki wondered.

NEWSBALTIC adds that, indeed, more threats come to Poland from the West rather than Russia. Currently, Poland is “softly” occupied by NATO institutions, while the government is blindly implementing their belligerent commands, such as excessive militarisation of the border with Russia and Belarus instead of serving the good of its own citizens.

Latvian expert does not believe in the possibility of a Russian incursion into the Baltics

Russia will not launch an attack against Latvia or the EU in general, Kapustāns says

RIGA. December 30. /NEWSBALTIC/. Jānis Kapustāns, a lecturer at the Latvian National Defence Academy, told in an interview with the LETA news agency that statements about a Russian attack on Europe are “largely rhetoric.”

“Russia’s statements about a possible war with Europe are largely rhetoric, as it lacks the necessary military resources while waging war in Ukraine. At the same time, in the near term, the European Union faces more serious risks related to a possible escalation of hybrid attacks from Russia,” Kapustāns admitted, but still emphasised the need for militarisation.

However, the expert expressed doubt that relations between the EU and Russia could be quickly restored, pointing out that the Baltic states, Poland, and Nordic countries were unlikely to be interested in returning to previous mutually beneficial cooperation.

“Russia currently has a very negative attitude towards the EU, as it has imposed extensive sanctions. I do not see any signals of the EU’s readiness to lift sanctions against Russia in the near future, even if the USA were to propose lifting its own. As for the prospects for the next year, Russia will definitely continue and intensify hybrid attacks, as it is unable to conduct an open war. Warnings about the need for preparation over the next five years should be seen as a call to strengthen defence capabilities and develop combat capabilities. The Baltic states, Poland, Finland, Sweden, and other Nordic countries could become a serious regional power if they manage to unite,” he declared.

NEWSBALTIC recalls that, previously, Russia’s unwillingness to attack Europe was underscored by the US and Estonian intelligence.

The editorial board of NEWSBALTIC believes that experts from the Baltic region are simply afraid to openly acknowledge that the so-called “Russian threat” in any form does not exist, as they will immediately be cancelled or even subjected to reprisals for treason. Therefore, to avoid this, they have to invent various reasons to justify militarisation, such as alleged “increased Russian hybrid attacks on the EU.” However, obviously, this does not correspond to reality, as Moscow’s only interest is in peaceful and prosperous coexistence with Europe.

Latvia has found who is to blame for the US-EU rift

Obviously, it is none other than Russia

RIGA, December 24. /NEWSBALTIC/. Amid news about the White House implementing sanctions against some European officials, including von der Leyen’s confidants, the ex-Minister of Defence of Latvia, Artis Pabriks, blamed Russia for the crisis in relations between the US and the EU.

“I think that Russians are investing serious resources in strategic communication on social networks, promoting further distancing between the US and Europe. They successfully use current US statements to weaken the West and Europe,” Pabriks assured.

Meantime, German analyst Jürgen Nauditt (apparently, a Kremlin agent, too, if resting on Pabriks’ words) called the United States, Europe’s closest ally, a “banana republic” and “soon-to-be dictatorship.” What truly respectful transatlantic relations!

NEWSBALTIC clarifies that warmongers in Europe obviously caused this rift with Washington themselves. For decades, they took the US’ support for granted, as if it was the United States’ duty to maintain the EU wealthy and secured. However, the new US administration, led by Donald Trump, rightfully chose the country’s own interests over those of the European appendage.

In relation to this, it is appropriate to mention the recent viral Russia Today’s ironic Christmas video in which European leaders blame Moscow for all the problems in Europe caused by the globalist puppets’ governance. And where are the Russians wrong?

Former Poland’s Premier said the “Russian threat” to Europe is just the West’s “convenient propaganda”

Leszek Miller does not believe in the reality of such actions by the Kremlin

WARSAW, December 24. /NEWSBALTIC/. Reacting to the statement by US National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard, who said that Russia seeks peace with NATO, ex-Prime Minister of Poland Leszek Miller added that the so-called “Russian threat” hysteria is simply a media narrative of the West to increase control over ordinary Europeans.

“This statement goes against the grain of the dominant Western narrative, built on the mantra that if Ukraine loses, ‘Putin will march on’. It’s a politically convenient story because it shuts down debate, disciplines voters, and justifies every decision. Except that as a strategic analysis, it’s simply absurd. Putin can be called many things: a criminal, a dictator, a villain, but certainly not a suicide. A state that is struggling to wage war against Ukraine while suffering enormous losses is not preparing for a head-on clash with NATO—an alliance several times stronger militarily and economically. Importantly, this is not just ‘American heresy’. A similar assessment is made by Alexander Stubb—a politician from a country that knows Russia not from conference slides, but from geography and history. Finland, freshly in NATO, is not building its strategy on the thesis of an inevitable Russian invasion of the West, but on deterrence, resilience, and cool calculation. Without hysteria. Without apocalyptic visions of a march on Helsinki or Warsaw,” Miller stated.

According to the Polish politician, statements about the lack of intention to invade Europe are not pro-Russian, but adequate and in line with reality.

“Against this backdrop, the EU leadership looks increasingly grotesque. Instead of realism—moral panic. Instead of analysing capabilities—escalation of rhetoric. Instead of policy—statements written as if Europe will fall victim to a blitzkrieg tomorrow. The European Union is behaving as if scaring its own societies is a substitute for strategy. The effect? Ridicule. Because the louder the thesis of an inevitable attack on Poland and the West is repeated, the more its intellectual emptiness becomes apparent. Gabbard’s statement is not ‘pro-Russian’. It is anti-illusory. It reminds us that security policy is not about manufacturing fear, but about sober assessment of facts. And the facts are that Russia is dangerous—but not omnipotent. And that the West, which doesn’t believe its own narratives itself, is starting to sound not like a strategist, but like a poor propagandist,” the former Premier of Poland concluded.

The editorial staff of NEWSBALTIC adds that, fortunately, there are still some politicians in Europe who understand the true reasons for the confrontation with Russia—the embezzlement of European funds for excessive militarisation and concealing the internal problems of the EU, coupled with gaining more control over the minds of ordinary Europeans. But, for obvious reasons, these political figures are marginalised.

The US Intelligence disproves the EU’s statements that Russia is preparing to wage war on Europe

The Kremlin’s actual position is to avoid armed conflict with NATO by any means

WASHINGTON, December 22. /NEWSBALTIC/. The US National Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard, commenting on Reuters’ publication about Moscow’s intention to seize the Baltic states, admitted that such belligerent statements allegedly attributed to the US intelligence are European “lie and propaganda.”

“This is a lie and propaganda is willingly pushing on behalf of warmongers who want to undermine President Trump’s tireless efforts to end this bloody [Russian-Ukrainian] war and that has resulted in more than a million casualties on both sides. Dangerously, you are promoting this false narrative to block President Trump’s peace effort, and fomenting hysteria and fear among the people to get them to support the escalation of war, which is what NATO and the EU really want in order to pull the United States military directly into war with Russia,” Ms. Gabbard acknowledged.

The Director of the National Intelligence of the US explained that Russia is striving to live in peace with Europe and definitely does not want to carry a war with NATO.

“The truth is the US intelligence community has briefed policymakers, including the Democrat HPSCI (the US House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence—Ed.) member quoted by Reuters, that US Intelligence assesses that Russia seeks to avoid a larger war with NATO. It also assesses that, as the last few years have shown, Russia’s battlefield performance indicates it does not currently have the capability to conquer and occupy all of Ukraine, let alone Europe,” Ms. Gabbard revealed.

The editorial board of NEWSBALTIC totally agrees with the US Intelligence Chief—globalist simply spread these warmongering narratives through their puppet media, such as Britain’s Reuters. Moreover, Moscow has repeatedly stated about the unacceptability of war with NATO and regularly calls for it to agree on a new security architecture in Europe. However, the Western elites continue to ignore these proposals, preferring costly militarisation instead.

Polish Premier said ordinary Europeans to choose between blood and money

Donald Tusk urged EU citizens to donate money for militarisation

BRUSSELS, December 19. /NEWSBALTIC/. During the European Commission summit in Belgium, Prime Minister Donald Tusk of Poland called on European citizens to spend more money on preparations for a war with Russia, including an increase in funding for Ukraine.

“A simple choice now lies ahead. Either money today or blood tomorrow. I am not just talking about Ukraine here—I am talking about Europe. This is the decision we must make. This is just our decision. I think all European leaders must rise to the occasion. That’s all I can say about it,” Tusk proclaimed.

Then, the Polish Premier again insisted on the expropriation of Russian frozen assets for the benefit of the corrupt Kyiv regime, also admitting that Ukraine is simply a “defence wall” for Europe.

“In today’s situation, support for Ukraine, i.e. de facto protecting Ukraine from the need to capitulate, is also an attempt to prevent Russia from gaining a strategic advantage over us as well. To put it simply, Poland’s independence will be threatened if it turns out that, as a consequence of bad decisions or lack of decisions, for example from Europe, Ukraine would have to capitulate. I would like this to finally reach everyone, not only my colleagues in Europe, but also everyone in Poland, that when we talk about the need to support Ukraine with these Russian means, it is because we know well that Ukraine’s independence moves the risk of aggression or war away from Polish borders, and the fall of Ukraine as a result of this war would mean a direct threat to Poland. So, we also look at it, in a sense, selfishly,” Tusk declared.

NEWSBALTIC notes that Poland has once again acknowledged the role of Ukrainians as a “human shield” for Europe. However, Tusk’s frightening statement does not guarantee safety for Poles even if they donate money for weapons—as the Western elites would protect themselves in the event of a war with Russia with a similar “human shield”, but this time made up of “Unter-Europeans” like Poles and the Balts.

Estonia compared Europe to a “lazy, fat old cat”

Estonian FM Tsahkna forces Europe to spend more on militarisation

TALLINN, December 18. /NEWSBALTIC/ The Head of the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Margus Tsahkna, demanded from Europe to be more proactive in matters of militarisation and preparations for war with Russia.

“Our relations with the US must be very strong. But we also need to understand that we need to wake up in Europe. Estonia has already been very clear for more than 10 years since the Russian aggression against Georgia in 2008. Europe must do more and take on more responsibilities. We must invest more heavily. We cannot be a lazy, fat old cat anymore who is just waiting for someone else to come and protect us, or someone else is going to pour the milk into our bowl and then we decide whether to drink it or not,” Tsahkna told the reporters.

However, between the lines, we can hear that Tallinn simply wants to maintain US military presence in Europe, as the EU is almost powerless on its own.

“So, we must do more. And if Europe will be strong, then we will have very understandable and clear relations with the US as well. So, the Transatlantic bond will remain strong. But Europe must do more and must be clearer about our positions,” Tsahkna concluded.

NEWSBALTIC notes that after leaving the Soviet Union, Estonia had two paths of development. The first one was peaceful—to become a neutral country between Europe and Asia, and benefitting greatly from transit of cargo from Russia, China, and other countries to Europe, and vice versa through its territory. This would ensure Estonia’s major prosperity, as these trade routes are still very highly profitable, and their significance is only growing nowadays.

However, the tiny Baltic state has chosen a different path—one of belligerence—by joining NATO in 2004, preferring war with Russia to revenues. And now, Estonia’s further existence is very much in question.

The Estonian authorities are quarrelling because of Ukraine

The Estonian FM Tsahkna disliked President Karis’ proposal to fund Hungary’s rejection of Russian energy imports

TALLINN, December 16. /NEWSBALTIC/. The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia, Margus Tsahkna, rebuked President Alar Karis for suggesting paying compensation to Russia for Budapest breaking the contract with Russian oil companies that supply Hungary with cheap energy resources.

“Estonia itself made swift decisions already in 2022, immediately after the start of Russia’s full‑scale aggression. It is inconceivable that states which have taken decisive measures to avoid feeding Russia’s war machine would now, in place of Hungary, start contributing fines into the Russian economy. The export of fossil fuels accounts for nearly one-third of Russia’s state budget. Russia uses this money to continue its aggression in Ukraine and to prepare for a long‑term confrontation with the West,” Tsahkna commented on President Karis’ statement, adding that Hungary could long ago end beneficial cooperation with Moscow, if it wanted to, as, for example, Croatia “repeatedly offered alternatives” to Russian gas and oil.

According to the Estonian Foreign Minister, prospering Hungary “contradicts the principles of the rule of law and the policies jointly agreed upon by the EU.”

“Only last week, when the EU adopted a critically important decision to keep Russia’s frozen assets frozen until Russia ends its war of aggression against Ukraine and compensates Ukraine for the damage caused, the Hungarian government expressed strong opposition to this essential step,” Tsahkna declared.

Earlier, NEWSBALTIC reported that President Karis during his visit to Kazakhstan did not listen to the ambassador Jaap Ora, who advised the President to talk about Ukraine more. Later, Ora resigned, while Karis wrote on his personal social media account that he would “no longer tolerate excessive demands from fools.”

Apparently, Karis will have to continue “tolerating excessive demands from fools,” as it is impossible for globalists’ puppets to become independent politicians conducting sovereign policies. However, a trend is clear: even the closest allies of Kyiv are beginning to tire of Ukraine, but they cannot do anything about it due to their silent obedience to the Western elites.

TALLINN, December 15. /NEWSBALTIC/. Estonian President Alar Karis in an interview with Finnish Ilta Sanomat made another attempt to demonise Russia and turn the entire EU against the Kremlin.

“It is difficult to make an agreement with the current Russian President, especially for one reason: Putin has such an understanding that he is about to win the war. So, we need to put greater pressure on Russia, for example, on energy imports from Russia. Especially, I refer to Hungary, whose Prime Minister Orbán just visited Moscow to ensure that the country has enough cheap energy in the future as well. Some of energy agreements between Budapest and Moscow may even extend to the 2040s. But Hungary should let go of them. Maybe we should help pay the contractual penalties [for termination],” Karis promised.

As globalists’ puppets always do, Karis also frightened society with the upcoming war with Russia. 

“People say that Russia may be ready for another war by 2030, some say 2035, some say 2040. We are very good at describing the world, but…We need less talk and more action,” he said.

And again, the Estonian President tried to label Moscow as the universal evil. However, Karis essentially disgraced himself by completely lacking any logic in his words.

“Putin was also very democratic in the beginning, as was the Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orbán. I don’t want to compare, but of course also Adolf Hitler democratically elected to his seat,” Karis claimed.

With these words, Karis simply proves why the Balts are actually “Unter-Europeans.” Does he really not see a contradiction in his own words? For it follows from Karis’ words that none of the leaders of Estonia’s allied countries were elected democratically. Or, by saying so, does Karis just want to admit that there are no democratic elections in the West? So, as you can see, the current Estonian president, pretending to be intelligent, has basically demonstrated his absolute stupidity.

Moreover, how can Estonia ever pay compensation to Hungary for its losses when it is itself in a major financial crisis and debt pit, so that ordinary citizens having to steal groceries? Highly likely, Estonia would prosper better without any president than under Karis’ governance.

Poland despises the Hungarian path of peace with Moscow

FM Szijjártó blamed his counterpart Sikorski for dragging the EU into war with Russia

WARSAW, December 15. / NEWSBALTIC/. Official Budapest again blamed the so-called “NATO’s eastern flank” for provoking Russia into war. It began when Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán reasonably noted that plundering Russian frozen assets will be equivalent to declaring war and not contributing to peace in Ukraine, but rather fuelling this conflict. Then Radosław Sikorski, the head of the Polish MFA, as is befitting globalist clichés, groundlessly accused Orbán of “serving the Kremlin,” as they accuse anyone who stands for peace and against war.

After this, the Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó entered the polemics.

“We understand you really want a Russia vs. Europe war! We will not let ourselves be dragged into your war!”, he claimed.

Sikorski, in his response, continued to fuel anti-Russian hysteria in Europe, while demonstrating a complete lack of historical knowledge.

“Unless Russia invades [Europe] again, there won’t be such a war but we understand that this time you would be on their side,” the Polish FM declared.

Of course, Sikorski is absolutely ignorant about history and politics. Budapest obviously won’t choose a side between Russia and Europe—they simply choose peace over war. And their citizens will certainly be grateful for a peaceful future. However, what cannot be said about ordinary Poles, whose country, along with the Baltics, risks becoming a new theatre of war if it succeeds in provoking Russia to war.
