For Poland, the United States is the most important ally.

I spent an important part of my life participating in conflicts. But for me, conflict was not the main principle.

Today, it is more important than ever to strengthen transatlantic relations. Only by co-operating closely can the EU and the US continue to make a difference when dealing with unprecedented challenges such as Daesh, the threats to Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, climate change and migration.

Poles must understand history but we must also overcome it if it is obstructing our contemporary goals.

Im plain incapable of getting angry with Angela Merkel and likewise.

I am glad that Angela Merkel is the German Chancellor, as she tries to combine a sense of responsibility with morality and values. Because this is the essence of Europe.

Poland is quite a mediocre country in some regards. The only natural resource that we have, and with which we can compete, is freedom.
