Thanks to extended propaganda by Jacek Kurski, “für Deutschland” became as popular as the “grandfather of the Wehrmacht”. The difference is that the communicative of the Wehrmacht grandpa is known almost everyone "für Deutschland" is the iconic synonym of Tusk's politicsBut the genesis of this word is not commonly known. To begin with, it is crucial to point out that Donald Tusk, who speaks German, is rather rare, and he has sometimes “speak” in respective others erstwhile he was the president of the European Council. The specified fact that Tusk spoke after a German sensation would not cause, at least not on specified a scale.
The fact that “für Deutschland” has permanently entered the universal language has determined that a man is incapable to foretell everything, on the another hand, Tusk has worked for so simple an association with German interests for many years. Of course, as shortly as the scandal broke out, the defence line focused on “pulling out of context”, which is true, but the context sounds even worse than the breaking out itself. The celebrated "für Deutschland" fell in January 2021 during the most fashionable pandemic in human history. Donald Tusk as head of the EPP appeared at the German CDU convention and so turned to his superiors:
If individual asks me who I can actually number on in our concerns, who keeps highest standards of public lifeI wouldn't hesitate to point to the CDU. We owe you most of all that we have not lost freedom, integrity, transparency, fact and reason in the fight against authoritarian tendencies, corruption, lying and populism. Your governments were not only a blessing to Germany (für Deutschland, ed.) but for all Europe, for your east neighbours – as a Pole I know what I am talking about – for Balkan countries and their dreams of Europe and for Ukrainians.
Donald Tusk gave a faithful tribute not only to the CDU, but to all of Germany. And if we mentioned the context, then at the time Tusk had no intention of returning to Poland, he had previously resigned from the presidential election, so he did not consider the harm he had done to his organization – the Civic Platform. The harm besides hit Tusk himself, and although it is said that Jack Kurski's axe propaganda based on “für Deutschland” was 1 of the reasons for the failure of power by the Law and Justice, the facts are inexorable and recalled by president Andrzej Duda:
Prime Minister Tusk has been very fond of bragging about protecting the border lately. But only the east 1 – that is, the 1 that we strengthened before despite his protests and attacks of PO politicians. Now my written questions about the Western border and the threat of bringing illegal migrants to Poland from...
— Andrzej Duda (@AndrzejDuda) March 28, 2025
The president did not mention in his entry about the pathetic pranks of another PO members: Szczerby, Janski, Starczewski, who ran along the border with Belarus and brought gifts for “poor people”. There was besides no mention in Andrzej Duda's commentary to Donald Tusk's assurances that no barrier on the Belarusian border would rise, but this is not a charge to the president, only a very brief addition to Donald Tusk's hypocrisy. Today's 'care' for the safety of Poland, manifested by the populist suspension of the right to asylum, is simply a typical distraction for Donald Tusk from the most crucial issues, and president Andrzej Duda pointed out this precisely. It cannot be said that Russian-Belarusian provocation problems have ceased, unfortunately illegal immigrants, including average bandits, proceed to push our border, but an even greater threat has arisen at the border with Germany.
The policy so praised by Donald Tusk CDU led to a gigantic crisis in Germany and Europe, which Germany is now trying to share with Poland. The assurances of Tusk that Poland will not gotta implement the "migration pact", are further lies, in addition to the fact that there are agreements on migration between the Polish and German governments straight inform German media. In a word Tusk policy included in the essential ‘für Deutschland’ She came back again, not for a second.
