Warsaw is looking beyond its own borders for security, as Tusk outlines a coalition designed to withstand pressure from Moscow.<\/p>\n
Supporting Ukraine in its resistance to Russian aggression is an important component of Poland\u2019s security. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk emphasized this during a naval parade in Gdynia, held to mark Armed Forces Day and the 106th anniversary of the Battle of Warsaw.<\/p>\n
He stressed that the country\u2019s defense depends not only on military capabilities, but also on effective alliances and a consistent foreign policy. In Tusk\u2019s view, Poland should develop cooperation with the countries of Northern Europe and the Baltic region in order to strengthen security in the face of the Russian threat.<\/p>\n
Building a modern version of a regional alliance with Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the Baltic states, with the active participation of the British, Danes, and Germans, will make the territories threatened by Russia secure. This is about real action and real alliances. These are new treaties, new agreements, new pacts.<\/p>\n

What Poland\u2019s security is based on<\/p>\n
Donald Tusk outlined four key areas on which the country\u2019s defense capability depends:<\/p>\n
reliable protection of state borders;
\nprudent and effective foreign policy;
\nsubstantial investment in the Armed Forces;
\na resilient and strong economy.<\/p>\n
The Polish prime minister called on representatives of political forces to maintain a common position on issues of defense and the inviolability of the country\u2019s borders. He noted that the military, border guards, police, and taxpayers are involved in protecting them.<\/p>\n
Today, we proudly tell the whole world, but above all those who want to violate our borders: \u201cYou will not succeed without the consent of the Polish state.\u201d We have deployed thousands of soldiers, border guards, and police officers for this purpose. This is also the effort of Polish taxpayers.<\/p>\n
