Polish assistance to Ukrainians has won praise near and far, as the country has already accepted more than 2.2 million refugees from its neighbor.
Many Poles will be hoping for a sign from Biden that Washington will continue to urge adherence to democratic values, hoping that won’t be forgotten among the need for wartime NATO unity.
Poland’s government has also incurred international criticism for eroding media independence, anti-LGBT rhetoric by Duda and others and the use of Pegasus spyware against government critics. Speaking from the NATO Summit in Brussels on Thursday, President Joe Biden announced $1 billion in humanitarian aid to Ukraine and new sanctions against Russia. “NATO has never been more united than it is today. Putin is getting exactly the opposite of what he intended to have as a consequence of going into Ukraine.”
Duda late last year moved to ease one key U.S. concern, vetoing legislation that threatened to silence an independent broadcaster, TVN. The TVN network is owned by U.S. company Discovery Inc. and the legislation would have forced Discovery to give up its majority stake in the broadcaster — the largest-ever U.S. investment in Poland.
In 2018, while asking the U.S. to establish a permanent military base in Poland, Duda proposed calling it"Fort Trump.”
