THE CRIMEAN CRISIS AND THE POLISH SECURITY
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2015, Vol 176, Issue 2
Abstract
The events taking place in Ukraine have stirred a lot of emotions among our citizens. Questions about the security of the country, the possibility of direct threats related to the political situation in Eastern Europe and the relationship between Russia and Ukraine are asked. Undoubtedly, this situation causes that there frequently appear issues concerning the state of national security and combat capabilities of our armed forces, especially in the context of the geographical location of Poland, which is still the easternmost external frontier of the EU and NATO. The aggression of Russia against Ukraine meant that the vast majority of Polish people stopped dealing only with "our" problems and they began to keep a very close watch and follow "Crimean events". In hundreds of Polish households people discuss mainly what the Russian President Vladimir Putin is going to do: “How far will he go in his imperialistic ambitions and will it end just with the annexation of Crimea? How will this conflict affect the economic functioning of Poland? These ones and a great number of other questions will remain unanswered for a long period of time.
