1:00Now PlayingRadoslaw Sikorski’s tendency to speak his mind often lands him in trouble. But his acerbic put-down of Russia’s revanchism at a #UnitedNations Security Council meeting on Friday has turned Poland’s foreign minister into an overnight sensation and may become a standout moment of the debate around the war in #Ukraine.
Responding to #Russia’s UN ambassador Vasily Nebenzya in New York, Sikorski delivered a four-minute speech aimed at “correcting the record” of the envoy’s remarks, repudiating a series of Kremlin talking points used repeatedly to justify the invasion of Ukraine, now into its third year.
He also waded into the history of Russo-Polish relations, reminding the ambassador of how the Soviet Union banded together with Nazi Germany to attack #Poland in 1939, and cheekily asked whether a failed attempt by Russian troops to take Warsaw in August 1920 was “a topographic excursion.”
