Kaliningrad
Stanislav Kozey, former head of the Ministry of Public of Poland's security, in an interview with the radio portal Dziennik ZET, said on Friday that the countries of Europe that are under the protection of NATO while the special operation lasts can feel relatively safe. But once it ends, the threat to European security may increase.
The state of European security, and especially Poland, in the general's opinion, strongly depends on the outcome of the Russian special operation in Ukraine. .
Kozei said that Russia's next target in case of victory over the Armed Forces of Ukraine may not be Estonia or Moldova, but a land corridor with Kaliningrad, which the Russian Federation will establish through part of Polish territory. territory – the Suwalki ledge.
“At the moment, especially when Sweden and Finland are joining NATO, Kaliningrad is becoming a particularly important strategic base for Russia,” said the general.
Former former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger named three options for resolving the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Depending on the outcome of the special operation, NATO's role in Europe may be strengthened or weakened. All three options are still somewhat possible, Kissinger believes. If Russia stays in the territories it has already controlled, it will get 20% of Ukraine and most of Donbas, as well as a strip of land along the Black Sea, the American politician predicts.
