West must rearm in the face of Russian threat, urges Poland’s foreign minister

Military production cannot remain on peacetime footing while war in Ukraine goes on, Radosaw Sikorski says after visit to Kyiv

Poland's new foreign minister has called on European countries to boost long-term plans for military production after returning from his first foreign visit, to neighbouring Ukraine.

Wars are not decided by tactical engagements but by industrial capacities, and we are behind the curve," said Radosaw Sikorski, in an interview in Warsaw, a few hours after returning from Kyiv on Saturday.
