Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

What kind of Poland do they want? Atlantic, democratic and sovereign — they keep talking about sovereignty — or under Putin’s boot?

That is exactly the choice Ukrainians are fighting over.

And the question is: do we want Putin’s tanks in Dorohusk and Medyka, or would we rather they remain in the Donbas? The farther from our borders, the better.

So Ukraine is our functional ally in keeping Putin away from our borders.
