Poland mulling triggering NATO Art. 4
https://www.thefirstnews.com ^ | NOVEMBER 15, 2021 | (PAP) EJ/MRB/EJ

Posted on 11/15/2021 5:31:23 PM PST by RomanSoldier19

According to unofficial information obtained by PAP, a meeting of Polish officials is planned for Tuesday at which the possibility of triggering Nato's Article 4 will likely be discussed.

The meeting is to be attended by the president, Andrzej Duda, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and the defence and interior ministers as well as officials of the foreign ministry, armed forces, police, Border Guard and other services.

Nato's Article 4 provides for joint consultations should a member state consider its territorial integrity, political independence or security to be under threat.

Poland, Lithuania and Latvia have been tackling an escalating migration crisis at their borders with Belarus in recent months, accusing Minsk's Alexander Lukashenko regime of engineering the crisis to destabilise the EU in retaliation for sanctions imposed by Brussels.

"The triggering of Article 4 of the North Atlantic Treaty and consideration of the matter are closely related to the situation on the border," a source close to the Polish President's Office told PAP. "I assume there will be discussion of that."

On Sunday, Morawiecki told PAP in an interview that the prime ministers of Lithuania and Latvia were considering activating Nato's Article 4.

The Bidet Regime and Frau Merkle will offer a diplomatic solution of bringing all of the Muslim migrants to the West.

Let’s go! It’s not like Russia would even think of blowing up our command and intelligence satellites!

. . . should a member state consider its territorial integrity, political independence or security to be under threat.

Hey, the U.S. is a NATO member, and its "territorial integrity" and "political independence" is under threat.

Who's going to come to our assistance?

They will, if asked.
US can also trigger Art. 4.
But, I do not think Biden will ask.

As a matter of fact, it may end up US sending troupes to help defend Polish (and Lithuanian and Latvian) Borders from immigrants, but letting our borders wide open.

Let’s go Brandon!

Quite interesting happenings there and lots of international arm-twisting. Migrants are just a tool. The politics of it all is evil. Lukashenko is a Soviet Union leftover.

Even Putin goes to him and says, "Dude! Give it up, the Soviet Union's over!"

He won't ask, mainly because he caused the "integrity" problem on our border.

Sure. Poop pants needs a war.

We can’t do anything for Poland. Just like the last time.
Ukraine? Same thing

One thing is for sure that this condition will be solved one way or another as it cannot continue this way, as people will die. I also don’t believe that Poland should open their borders and cave to EU demands.

All they need is to repael the Dublin agreement, where Article 3 guarantees everyone claiming asylum at border shelter until his claim is processed, and crack down on Marxist NGOs inside Europe agitating Muslims to come.

The entire show is the consequence of Nuland and Burns visit to Moscow, where they offered Putin to return Ukraine and Baltic states under the Russian influence for the alliance against China.

We all understand that they got, hence the destabilization around the Russian Western frontier by the assorted bunch of usual suspects. It is not going to produce the result these dolts expect. The entire Biden administration is gang of juvenile delinquents. Blinken is hell bent on making Hillary and Kerry look genius by comparison.

20k troops denying access to 750 people when there are millions invading Italy from Africa is a crap show.

“We can’t”

Actually we can, but probably won’t, because of the Communist traitors running our Fed Gov.
