Abstract

Abstract This article presents the Polish perspective together with Poland's response to the war in Ukraine. Because the situation is quite dynamic, the report documents the early period, that is, approximately the first half year of the conflict. Social consequences such as the flood of refugees from the war-torn country to Poland are examined, also with a view of how it affected resident Ukrainians at the time. In its position as a North Atlantic Treaty Organization eastern flank country, the organization's summit in Madrid at the end of June 2022 and how it was evaluated by Poles is of significance. Moreover, the acceptance of the candidacy of Ukraine as a potential member in the European Union led to a robust discussion in Poland that merged with the discussion on the results of the NATO summit. The internal situation in Ukraine and the military situation is not studied except where it arises in the discussion of Poles or EU members.
