19.08.2025 ⇢ The Peace Quest
⌨Polish media on August 19th intensely focused on the evolving diplomatic efforts for Ukraine, following the Washington summit. Early reports highlighted President Trump’s confirmation of preparations for a direct meeting between Putin and Zelensky, alongside significant US commitments for Ukraine’s security and financial aid. This spurred continued debate over Poland's notable absence from these high-level Washington talks, leading to internal political blame regarding diplomatic oversight. As the day progressed, Prime Minister Tusk's participation in a “coalition of the willing” meeting, aimed at supporting Ukraine, was widely reported. Later, attention shifted to Moscow's peace overtures, with the White House announcing Vladimir Putin's agreement to a “new peaceful stage” potentially involving a Zelensky meeting or visit to Moscow. Trump suggested a different capital for talks. Despite these international developments, domestic criticism of Tusk's government and its poll ratings persisted, often linked to the perceived diplomatic exclusion.
