Polish journalist Kazimierz Wójcicki expressed this opinion on the Espreso TV channel."Among Poles, there is a bit of panic and a certain mobilization after the attack of Russian drones, but, I would say, the effect is paradoxical. If you look chronologically, there was such an unpleasant wave of anti-Ukrainian propaganda, and military exercises in Belarus, and this drone attack. Perhaps this was all Putin's plan, but I think that not everything went as he wanted. It may be that Putin had a plan to influence Polish society and see how NATO would react. We will still wait for the reaction in Poland, however, in my opinion, this is a return to reality," commented Kazimierz Wójcicki.In his opinion, it was Putin's mistake to think that it would be possible to spread information that these were not Russian drones and to strengthen anti-Ukrainian sentiments among Polish society."For example, one effect is the understanding that Poland has weak anti-drone defense, that Ukraine is not only fighting well but also has a high technological level, so we need to learn from the Ukrainians. We need to send military personnel to Ukraine for training. This is Ukrainian know-how, knowledge, and now Ukrainians can give Poles help. If before they said that Polish military personnel would not go to Ukraine, now they will go, but in a different role. And this is also a change, an important psychological fact," the journalist noted.Wójcicki added that the attack of Russian drones on Poland showed the mobilization of NATO. The anti-Ukrainian wave of Putin's propaganda in Poland was part of the propaganda against the EU, but Putin, by sending drones, saw the European solidarity of NATO.
