An ominous warning of the threat of a new World War has come from Poland’s respected foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski. It is now necessary to be prepared for a war “of the scale that our grandfathers and great-grandfathers saw”, he told the Sejm, the Polish parliament. Pointing to the jeopardy posed by dictator Vladimir Putin, he warned of the prospect of conflicts on the scale of WW1 and WW2.
