Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski stated late Saturday that European nations will not form a unified army in response to Russia’s threats.

Earlier on Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy called for the establishment of a European army, arguing that Europe could no longer rely on U.S. protection and would only earn Washington’s respect with a powerful military.

When asked about the possibility of creating a European army, Sikorski cautioned against the use of the term, as it means different things to different people.

“If you understand by it the unification of national armies, it will not happen. But I have been an advocate for Europe, for the European Union, to develop its own defence capabilities,” he said.

He added that the EU was in the process of forming a strengthened brigade.

Sikorski emphasized that deploying Polish troops to Ukraine was not being considered, as Poland’s obligation to NATO is to defend its own territory.
