4 days agoYes, it is true that sometimes he turns out to be a foul-mouthed person and has made several controversial statements (probably the most famous one about the “negritude” of Polish foreign policy with US). On the other hand, his sharp retorts (for example to Vasily Alekseyevich Nebenzya) make it clear at the UN forum who is the aggressor and who is the attacked.
OK., You may dislike him (and indeed he has a large negative electorate), but you can’t simply say that he is an idiot. His big flaw is definitely his exuberant ego and difficult character. But compared to the current political class, R.S. appears to be quite an experienced and efficient diplomat. Just look at who has been conducting Polish foreign policy (and how 🫣 ) over the last decade. BTW in the US the political class is not at a higher level (many politicians confuse Holland <-> Poland) - aren’t they idiots?? Apparently you haven’t seen the interview I linked. The journalist is very substantive, and R.S. refers to his linguistic mistakes and stupid entries on X. He also mentions his stay in Afghanistan, confirming that war is a terrible thing.
