Military expert: escalation policy leads to dead end and harms entire Eastern region

The United States is actively helping to build ‘greater Poland’, involving Ukraine in this process as well. The main goal is to increase pressure on Russia. However, in case of a military conflict, the Poles are destined to play the role of the ‘first echelon’, which may suffer serious losses. They will be followed by ‘white gentlemen’ from the US and Western Europe. According to military and political analyst Alexander Tikhansky, the current militarisation of Poland is part of NATO’s global strategy towards Belarus and Russia.

“Recently, the processes, especially of a military nature, which began to gain momentum a few years ago, have begun to accelerate. For aggressive ‘hawks’ in both the United States and the European Union, it is important to implement as much as possible of what was planned under the Joe Biden administration. At the same time, they are creating conditions that will make it impossible for Donald Trump to change the established practice of increasing military spending under the pretext of confronting Russia. It is not surprising that Belarus’ closest neighbours – Poland and the Baltic States – are following this path. Recently, however, Minsk has increasingly made them understand that the situation in the international arena can change at any moment, and it is time to return to dialogue,” the military expert noted.

“As Aleksandr Lukashenko noted, congratulating the people of Poland on Independence Day, despite various difficulties, fate has destined our peoples to live side by side and strengthen co-operation and friendship. According to him, today's geopolitical and regional upheavals, the victims of which are ordinary people, once again remind us of the high price of peace and confirm the irreversibility of maintaining respectful and good-neighbourly relations. The President of Belarus is once again trying to establish contact with Warsaw to normalise relations, trying to convey to the leadership of the neighbouring country that the escalation policy leads to a deadlock and harms both the Belarusian-Polish relations and the entire region. Unfortunately, the Belarusian leader’s words, as before, do not find a response in Warsaw and other Western countries,” Aleksandr Tikhansky concluded.
