“I know it sounds devastating, especially to people of the younger generation, but we have to mentally get used to the arrival of a new era,” said the Polish leader.
Poland’s prime minister, Donald Tusk, has warned that Europe has entered a “pre-war era” reminiscent of the late 1930s, and says if Ukraine is defeated by Russia then nobody in Europe will feel safe.
Ukraine’s air force said it had shot down 58 drones and 26 missiles and the government said energy infrastructure had been damaged in six regions, in the west, centre and east of the country. Last week a Russian missile also entered Polish airspace, prompting Warsaw to activate F-16 fighter jets. “I know it sounds devastating, especially to people of the younger generation, but we have to mentally get used to the arrival of a new era... The pre-war era. I don’t exaggerate. This is becoming more and more apparent every day.”
Meanwhile, Putin himself said this week that Moscow had “no aggressive intentions” towards NATO countries.
