As much as Americans celebrate the visit of the Polish president and relations with Poland, they showed questions of White home correspondents in the Oval Office, after Donald Trump and Karol Nawrocki made their authoritative statements about 11:45 local time on Wednesday, September 3 in Washington.
In addition to Polish media who asked questions about the visit, Polish-American relations and relations with Putin, journalists practically ignored Nawrocki. The live Associated Press camera eliminated the Polish president from staff, and American reporters returned to hot topics in America – a provocative gathering of leaders of China, Russia and India at the summit in China, a national intervention in the large cities of America and a ensuing scandal around Jeffrey Epstein.
Surprisingly, Trump was the individual in the area who tried to remind the media of the presence of the Polish President, doing rather skillful rhetorical procedures. For example, erstwhile asked if he intended to send his people to deal with crimes on the streets of Chicago, Trump said that he was ashamed to talk in the presence of the Polish President, but yes, Chicago, the centre of American Polonia, has made good advancement with crime.
Ceremonial Nawrocks and centre-left Tusk
As far as Polish-American relations are concerned, we have not learned anything fresh – possibly the Americans only learned that Poland was a country that always contributed zealously to NATO funds.
The U.S. military will stay in the US and "if they want, we will send more," Trump said, and it was alternatively a spontaneous commitment that hit the headlines of respective Western media (Bloomberg, "Newsweek", Reuters). Trump emphasized his support for the right-wing president, mentioning that the fight in this year's presidential elections in Poland was fierce and without covering up with which side he identified.
Nawrocki stressed the common conservative relations between both masters and both countries, but already the "New York Times" did not hesitate a fewer hours later to call Nawrock ceremonial, and thus mostly symbolically the president whose power is limited in the country of the "central-left" government. The gathering between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Radosław Sikorski the erstwhile day in Miami, Florida was not even mentioned. Sikorski besides appeared in Washington, D.C., but he was not invited to meet the president.
Both presidents congratulated each another on their joint voters: American Polonia overwhelmingly supports Nawrocki in Poland and Trump in the US. The tradition of long-term military cooperation, symbolized by the flight of the F-16 and F-25 aircraft squadron over the White home in the Missing Man formation, was highlighted. As Trump stressed during the press meeting, a flight – which "Atlanta Black Star" (meaning a secondary regional newspaper) described as expensive – he was to commemorate the Polish pilot Maciej Krakowian, who died a week ago in an airplane accident.
The host dictates conditions more than ever
Nawrocki fell not bad, with functional English, although his function was reduced to a lounge dog, politely seated alongside Trump on the couch, as reported by social media users just after the visit. The lion's part of the entries came from Poles surviving in the US and in another parts of the world. The left side was pushing – the erstwhile claimed that it was better to have a "dog" than a left side president, the second wondered which politician of the 2 had larger deficits as head of state.
After famous visit of Volodymyr Zelenski in the White home in February of that year, during which the Ukrainian president was scolded as a student, leaders of individual countries have no choice but to suck up to Trump, especially in his own territory. PBS platformNews noted that the U.S. president had a warm pat on Nawrocki's welcome on his shoulder, and at the very beginning of the press gathering even on his knee.
On the another hand, a Polish journalist, not accustomed to the description presently required by White home correspondents (let's remind that the White home Press Corpse dug up the Associated Press and the "Wall Street Journal", where sucking up to the president is the only way to get an answer.
Polish Radio correspondent at the White home Marek Wałkuski asked Trump why he was doing nothing about Putin and ending the war in Ukraine. “How do you know I don’t?” Trump started out with a cocktail, but then he got pissed off, taking care of Walkuski to find a fresh job. The incidental was described by both Fox News (media right) and MSN (considered as a media left). Sitting next to Nawrocka didn't comment.
After the conference, the presidents continued to talk behind closed doors, after which Nawrocki met with Polish media. He stated that he assured Trump of his akin perception of Putin as a threat to the planet and mentioned that Trump had invited him to the G20 summit.
Primus among allies
Since Poland is not causing America any problems, there is no point in dealing with it in the eyes of Americans and American media. Good thing he's a loyal ally. It allows America to have US troops stationed on its territory and regardless of whether it governs Tusk or Nawrocki, it will play politics towards Russia as Trump will. For Americans to take an interest in Poland, it would gotta change.
The most provocative reaction to the visit of the Polish president comes from the regular Beast. She accused Trump of narcissism After giving Nawrocki MAGA gadgets – a legendary red cap and buying net with the president's signature.
I think that's actually the most crucial thing the Polish president has brought from Washington. Along with Trump's advice that Nawrocki in Rome greet the pope, who surely does not include both leaders as his ideological allies.
