Terrific? The K-twins were horrible! For the EU - and Germans in particular - the foreign policy of both of them were a mess. It is a myth that Germany and France run the EU - they simply don´t have that much power. The EU is a common system based on the solidarity of all of its members, meaning that we are supposed to stand together. Like in a family, the various governments have to make compromises to achieve good results. Under der Kazczynski´s, Poland appeared to play the 3-yrs old, crying for sweets and insisting, that it´ll cry as long until it gets the sweets. Imagine how the Prime Minister tried to block the progress made on the EU summit in Brussels in June from Warsaw, while his brother has reached a deal. By threatening to use the veto all the time Poland tried to block the efforts made by all other 26 EU members. I´m relieved that Poland now gets a government, that doesn´t view its biggest neighbour country or the EU as a threat to its national security. The bilateral relations between Poland and Germany have been good between 1989 and 2005, and I´m confident, that we can soon re-establish these good relations.
You sound like a technocrat working for the monster the EU.
