"I will not say that I feel horrified, I would not use that word. I think this is part of a very tough tactic in these negotiations," the Polish president said, commenting on Trump's actions.
Duda added that during his recent visit to the United States, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy demonstrated "harsh and emotional" behavior in the Oval Office, which, according to the Polish leader, indicates the need for Zelenskyy to return to the negotiation process with the United States.
