Donald Tusk: ''War in Europe is a real threat. And the EU is not ready''

“For the first time since 1945, war in Europe is becoming ‘real’ again: we might currently be sliding into a “pre-war era". Donald Tusk admits, in this first international interview since taking office as Polish prime minister, how worried he is about the escalating threats coming from Russia.

Highlighting the unprecedented nature of the current crisis, Tusk drew parallels to the aftermath of World War II, noting that the geopolitical landscape has not been this precarious since 1945. "The most worrying thing right now is that literally any scenario is possible," he cautioned, underscoring the need for decisive action to avert catastrophe.
