Russophobia

I have a question for the editors of the article - can the ideology of the party be called anti-Russian and is it worth adding relevant information to it? Over the past 1.5 months, the statements of the Polish authorities towards Russia have become extremely harsh: the Polish Prime Minister called for a ban on trade with Russia, and later the issuance of Schengen visas, and the Polish Minister of Culture Piotr Gliński - for the boycott of Russian culture. In a recent interview with CNN, Polish President Andrzej Duda also said that dialogue with Russia is pointless, and also called for the dismantling of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. There is information about this in the French and Italian sections of Wikipedia. MasterRus21thCentury (talk) 22:07, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Firstly it's not russophobia in any way, but more importantly they take a hard stance on every diplomatic interaction, including blasting the Czech Republic, Ukraine, France, the Netherlands and Germany, whenever any of them ever dares to criticise or even raise any point about Poland. They use the same rhetoric and tactic over and over. If anything, given the gravity of Russia's actions, they have been particularly lenient on Russia compared to others, and particularly silent on Orban, Salvini and Le Pen, which they were hand in hand quoting pro-Russian rhetoric together just a few weeks ago.Abcmaxx (talk) 23:46, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

I mean Russophobia in Poland's foreign policy, which cannot be said about the programs of Viktor Orban, Marine Le Pen and Matteo Salvini, who have a softer position on anti-Russian sanctions. Moreover, already yesterday Mateusz Morawiecki announced the start of a program to send out anti-Russian propaganda in Western Europe. So what to enter information or not?

Pointing out Russia's war crimes and opposing their invasion isn't "Russophobia", it's just stating the obvious reality. Orban and Le Pen are Russian allies and will quite happily parrot whatever nonsense Russia comes out with, the difference here is in Poland there's no public support for Russian imperialism and historic revisionism. What Morawiecki actually announced is to encourage others to actually stop funding Putin and make sanctions work as not to fund the genocide of a sovereign neighbouring country. Also sanctions aren't "anti-Russian", they're sanctions on Russia, an aggressive warmongering state, calling this Russophobia and anti-Russian is just playing into Russian propaganda trying to justify the unjustifiable.
