#Poland’s president: Ukraine like ‘drowning person clinging to anything available’
“Ukraine is behaving like a drowning person clinging to anything available,” Duda told Polish journalists, the Financial Times reported. “A drowning person is extremely dangerous, capable of pulling you down to the depths … simply drown the rescuer.”
Public sentiment around the issue, however, has started to deteriorate, putting the ruling party in a difficult position ahead of a close October election. The far-right Confederation party is hoping to capitalize on the waning support in the country.
At the same time, however, Duda has maintained his commitment to helping Ukraine. In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper on Tuesday, Duda reaffirmed his support for defeating Russia completely.
“ #Russia can be stopped only if it is defeated, and it will be defeated when #Ukraine pushes out the Russian army from the occupied territories, thanks to the help of the United States, thanks to the help of the West, and when it regains control over its internationally recognized borders,” Duda said in the interview.
