Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk believes that it is impossible to repeat the appeasement of the aggressor, recalling the 1938 Munich Agreement signed with Hitler. Tusk emphasized that he is stating this as a historian.

The Polish Prime Minister wrote about this on the X network, Ukrinform reports.

"As a tourist, I really like this place. Nice people, great beer, beautiful Pinakothek. As a historian and politician, the only thing I can say today: MUNICH. NEVER AGAIN," Tusk wrote.

In another report, the head of the Polish government noted that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in Munich on Saturday: "Brussels may disappoint some. But if there is no Brussels, then Moscow will come."

"The Ukrainian President understands this, but PiS (Law and Justice) and the Confederation do not. Or, worse (this is very likely), they understand it very well," Tusk wrote.

As is known, the heated phase of the election campaign for the presidential elections, which will be held in May, is underway in Poland. The main rivals of Rafal Trzaskowski, the candidate from Tusk's liberal Civic Coalition, are Karol Nawrocki, a candidate supported by the right-wing conservative PiS party, and Sławomir Mentzen, a candidate from the nationalist Confederation.

A security conference is taking place in Munich from February 14-16. During the conference, US Vice President J.D. Vance criticized modern European elites. He noted that Washington seeks a "reasonable" settlement between Russia and Ukraine and believes that Europe should be more active on this issue, but the main problem for Europe is not Russia or China, but restrictions on social media freedom and migration.

In turn, US special envoy Keith Kellogg stated that the Europeans failed to ensure the peace process within the framework of the Minsk agreements, so the United States is unlikely to directly involve them in the peace process in Ukraine.

In September 1938, the prime ministers of Great Britain, France, and Italy signed an agreement with Hitler in Munich, as a result of which the countries agreed to the separation of the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia and its transfer to Germany. However, this did not stop Berlin from further aggressive plans, and a year later Hitler attacked Poland, unleashing World War II.
