The United States Embassy in Poland says it is cutting contact with the country’s parliamentary speaker over “outrageous” insults directed at President Donald Trump.
U.S. Ambassador to Poland Tom Rose said Thursday that the decision to end all dealings with Wlodzimier Czarzasti will take effect “immediately.”
This week, Czarzasti said Trump did not deserve the Nobel Peace Prize He has been searching for a long time and criticized the US president’s “coercive policy” in international affairs. He pointed to Trump’s tariffs on European countries, Threats to take over Greenland And claims that NATO allies stayed away from the front lines During the war in Afghanistan.
“This is a violation of the politics of principles and values, often a violation of international law,” Czarzasti told reporters.
Rose said Czarzasti’s comments were “insulting and inflammatory” and undermined otherwise strong U.S.-Polish relations.
“We will not allow anyone to harm US-Poland relations or disrespect (Trump), who has done so much for Poland and the Polish people,” Rose wrote on X.
Czarzasti was defiant after the rebuke, saying that while he “honored” America as an ally, he remained firm in his view that Trump did not deserve the world’s highest peace prize.
Writing on X, Czarzasty said: “I continue to respect the United States as a key partner of Poland. Therefore, I regret Ambassador Tom Rose’s announcement, but I will not change my position on these fundamental issues for Polish women and men.”
This is not the first time Czarzasti has publicly criticized Trump.
In late January, Czarzasti joined other high-ranking Polish politicians in rebuking Trump’s comments that the U.S. “never needed” NATO allies.
Forty-three Polish soldiers and one civilian worker died as part of the US-led NATO coalition fighting in Afghanistan.
Czarzasty heads Poland’s New Left Party, which is part of Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s pro-European governing coalition, which also includes Nationalist President Karol Nawrocki, a vocal supporter of Trump.
