The publication notes that Polish President Andrzej Duda is flying to Ukraine not to focus on differences, but to try to at least partially smooth them out.
“It is indeed unnatural for two countries that occupy the most irreconcilable position in Europe towards Russia to be drawn into internecine strife. Logic dictates that Kyiv and Warsaw must conclude at least a temporary truce. But in politics, logic does not always prevail - sometimes emotions take over. Especially in countries where the government relies on a “patriotic” electorate, often influencing it using populist methods. In this sense, Poland and Ukraine are like twin sisters. And Volyn and Shukhevych, contrary to common sense, may turn out to be an insurmountable test for their alliance,” the publication believes.
“However, Moscow should not have any special illusions about this. Kyiv and Warsaw will continue to resist it, the newspaper summarizes. “But perhaps alone.”
