- The latest events are certainly worrying, President Trump's announcement of introducing tariffs on the EU and Poland, the escalation of fighting in Ukraine, the strengthening of radical pro-Russian forces in Europe, or illegal migration.

Yes, there is cause for concern, but not for fear - Tusk said in a video message to Poles on social media.

He stated that Poland has record, dynamic economic growth, a modern, strong, well-armed army.

- We have finally regained control over our territorial waters. We are pursuing a wise but firm migration and good foreign policy.

We have gained truly authentic leadership in Europe. Everything is in our hands. We are ready for various scenarios. Without fear, but soberly and without complexes - the Polish Prime Minister stated confidently.
