Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski: We as NATO should exercise so aggressively on our side to make Putin uncertain of what we will do. He needs to draw forces away from Ukraine.
Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski: The Council of Baltic Sea States, without the rest of Europe and NATO, has a bigger GDP than Russia and a bigger peacetime defense budget than Russia's wartime budget. Russia has no hope of winning against us.

Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski: If Russia attacked us and we took our gloves off, I think we would defeat Russia quite quickly. We have overwhelming superiority over Russia in air power. If the Ukrainians have knocked out half of Russia’s refining capacity in six months, we could do it in six weeks and take out the other half.

Look, as Ukrainians, you have plenty of real heroes. Don’t put on pedestals people who have a mixed record, because you’re not doing justice to yourself. And if you do,
