Some allies should shut up and listen too
Tusk seems to be one of the more sensible leaders these days.
Apart from the insane shit US ambassadors to Europe say these days, which is only a sad show anyways, I’m much more worried about what is happening behind the scenes. I’m afraid they are really financing far right organisations and parties in Germany and Poland very heavily, it starts to show in polls everywhere.
The current US government consider as ally only Israel, probably. The rest of the “western countries” are considered nothing else than vassals or, in the worst case, countries that formed some.kind of alliance to “screw the United States”.
America has fallen in to fascism. The question now is whether it can rescue itself
“That sounds like a lecture, Mr. Polish PM. Therefore you are a hypocrite and that means I have done nothing wrong and you have done lots of things wrong.” -Trump, probably
My mom used to lecture me
Got to say. I thought all that overextended US empire declining chat was major BS.
But then you see the quality of some top people in the US and abroad and you genuinely start to wonder.
Case in point https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5kKKLi0wCTQ
Vance claiming Denmark has underinvested in security on Greenland so that it can not protect the USA from attack.
Yep. That is the Trump regimes argument, that tiny Denmark needs to protect the 345 million USA from 140 million Russia, and Denmark/Greenland should pay for USA protecting itself.
That’s not friendship, that’s a performance review.
The US are not our allies any longer.
They are no longer our allies.
Seems like the majority of his ambassadors are total tools with zero diplomatic tact.
Allies should also not threaten to attack ones territory but maybe im just old fashioned
I agree with the general sentiment of the title.
I will add that a good friend will nevertheless signal in a respectful manner if you are getting fat or your alcohol consumption is getting out of hand.
Also, to OP: I did a ton of gaming on 9600GT. That card served me well.
**Poland’s prime minister said on Thursday that “allies should respect, not lecture, each other” after the US ambassador to Warsaw announced he was suspending all contacts with Poland’s top lawmaker over his “outrageous and unprovoked insults” against President Donald Trump.**
“Mr. Ambassador Rose, allies should respect, not lecture, each other,” Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on the X social media platform.
“At least this is how we, here in Poland, understand partnership,” he added.
The US envoy, Tom Rose, said earlier on Thursday on X that “effective immediately, we will have no further dealings, contacts or communications” with Poland’s parliamentary Speaker Włodzimierz Czarzasty.
Czarzasty, a left-wing politician and Speaker of Poland’s lower house of parliament, [said](https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7784/artykul/3642327,polish-parliamentary-speaker-refuses-to-back-trump-for-nobel-peace-prize) earlier this week that he would not support efforts to nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, arguing the US president did not deserve the award.
He argued that Trump was destabilising international organisations and pursuing “transactional politics” backed by “the use of force.”
He also defended Polish soldiers who fought alongside US forces in Afghanistan after Trump last month [downplayed](https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7784/artykul/3638272,update-polish-leaders-hit-back-at-trumps-remarks-on-nato-allies) the role of NATO allies in the war.
Rose said Czarzasty “has made himself a serious impediment” to Washington’s “excellent relations” with Tusk and his government.
“We will not permit anyone to harm US-Polish relations, nor disrespect President Donald Trump, who has done so much for Poland and the Polish people,” Rose wrote.
Czarzasty responded on X, saying that, in keeping with his values, he had defended Polish soldiers on foreign missions and opposed Trump’s Nobel nomination.
He added that he held “constant respect for the United States as a key partner for Poland.”
He said he regretted Rose’s statement but would not change his position “on issues fundamental for the Polish people.”
The exchange comes as the office of Polish President Karol Nawrocki, a conservative ally of Trump, has alleged that [Czarzasty](https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7784/artykul/3609040,polish-parliament-elects-leftwing-mp-as-new-speaker) may have “social and business ties” to Russia.
The presidential office said the issue would be discussed at a meeting of the National Security Council scheduled for February 11.
Czarzasty rejected the [allegations](https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7784/artykul/3643348,presidential-official-urges-polish-lowerhouse-speaker-to-address-allegations-of-eastern-ties) on Wednesday, saying he had been thoroughly vetted by Poland’s security services before being granted access to state secrets.
Though he does not wield executive power, the lower-house Speaker is widely regarded as Poland’s second-highest state official, after the president.
