Hungary, Poland, Slovakia to continue own bans on Ukraine grains
The European Commission said it has not extended the ban on imports of Ukrainian grain products in five EU countries beyond September 15.
However, the Polish prime minister said that #Warsaw will expand the restrictions unilaterally.
This is going to get interesting.
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said he has requested that the European Commission extend the ban.#Russia-Ukrainewar #Europe #Poland
Poland threatens to keep Ukrainian grain ban after embargo date expires
Poland’s Confederation Liberty and Independence party, which is enjoying double-digit support in the polls, looks set to sway the outcome of what next month promises to be one of the tightest elections since the end of communism. The popularity of a party that opposes immigration and abortion and attacks the EU is not just a Polish phenomenon. Disruptors from the far-right are gaining traction across Europe, profiting from resentment born out of the pandemic, the cost-of-living crisis and the economic toll from the war in Ukraine. A mix of nationalists and parties with neo-Nazi roots to euroskeptics and Donald Trump-style populists, polls show they now place among the top three most popular political groups in almost half of the EU.

The Holocaust and the Politics of Memory
Every time I read the news from Poland and think this can't be true, they prove me wrong. There is no limit to their sense of entitlement hypocrisy.
Here they tell EU to pay for Ukraine to export grains, but the polish government still refuses to allow them to enter their country!

Kiev must be oriented towards #Germany/#France, instead of #Warsaw, because #Ukraine's accession to the #EU must take place at the expense of #Poland.
We should be afraid of the madness Polish are willing and able to generate if they feel that Ukraine is losing the war.
This is our most fragile front lead by a bunch of lunatic fanatic Russian hating, #NATO member christian Taliban.
#Poland's Defense Minister said the armed #helicopters are on standby readiness at 2 bases near the border. Pilots have combat experience and will fire without hesitation if provoked, he warned.

On October 1, 1960, then-senator John F. Kennedy addressed the Polish American Congress in Chicago. Commenting on the limitations of, as he called it, “the policy of liberation,” #JFK stated: “We do not want to mislead the people of #Poland or #Hungary again, that the #United-States is prepared to liberate them. Therefore, within the general framework of present events, what policies should we carry out? What can we do to maintain the spirit of independence? What can we do to help, in Thomas Jefferson's words, the disease of liberty to spread? Poland is a satellite government, but the Poles are not a satellite people. We have no right, unless we are prepared to meet our commitments, to incite them to national suicide.” And while he did not advocate for abandoning Poland to the whims of the overlords in Moscow, the future president clearly understood how harmful a policy of building up expectations of the Americans “coming to the rescue” can be in Eastern Europe and preferred a policy of cautious realism.
