According to hvylya.net: Anti-Ukrainian sentiments are growing in Poland, as reported by the source 'Hvylya'. The country's Prime Minister Donald Tusk noted that pro-Russian sentiments and hostility towards Ukraine are increasing in Polish society.

'A wave of pro-Russian sentiments and outrage regarding a belligerent Ukraine, created by the Kremlin based on real fears and emotions, is growing. The role of politicians is to stop this wave, not to ride it. This is a test of patriotism and maturity of the entire Polish political class.'

Tusk called on politicians to stop spreading pro-Russian sentiments, which, according to him, are based on real fears and emotions that the Kremlin spreads.

Reaction to Russia's actions

Last week, it became known that Russian drones illegally entered Polish territory and caused damage. In addition, joint military exercises between Russia and Belarus titled 'West' began on September 12.

According to the latest data, downed Russian drones have been found in 17 settlements across five voivodeships in Poland, with the most discoveries made in the Lublin Voivodeship.

In response to these events, NATO made the decision to launch 'Eastern Guardian' operation to strengthen the security of the alliance's eastern borders.

In Poland, there is an increasing wave of pro-Russian sentiments and hostility towards Ukraine, which has prompted a response from Prime Minister Tusk. The reaction to provocations from the Russian side was the deployment of NATO's 'Eastern Guardian' operation aimed at enhancing security in the east.
