The Polish parliamentary speaker, W\u0142odzimierz Czarzasty, criticized Trump as undeserving of the Nobel Peace Prize, calling Trump\u2019s approach a \u201cpolicy of force\u201d and faulting him for NATO-related tensions. U.S. Ambassador too Poland Tom Rose responded by announcing that the U.S. would sever all further dealings with Czarzasty, accusing him of insults toward Trump and of damaging U.S.\u2013Polish relations. The dispute played out on social media, with Rose clashing with critics and Czarzasty defending his remarks and refusing to retract.<\/p>\n<p>Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk entered the exchange on X, arguing that allies should respect each other, while rose issued a more measured follow-up message to the Polish leadership. Other Polish figures weighed in, including Roman Giertych, who criticized Rose, and dominik tarczynski, who backed Rose. The episode highlights the fragility of U.S.\u2013Poland ties despite a long-standing partnership and Trump\u2019s favorable stance toward Poland, as well as Rose\u2019s controversial defense of Polish history, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/israel-and-hamas-agree-to-temporary-cease-fire-swap-of-50-hostages-for-150-palestinian-prisoners\/\" title=\"Israel and Hamas Agree to Temporary Cease-Fire, Swap of 50 Hostages for 150 Palestinian Prisoners\">drawn international criticism<\/a> even as it garners support in Poland.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Polish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/uk-govt-lockdown-to-last-12-months-expect-repeated-vaccinations\/\" title=\"UK Govt: Lockdown to Last 12+ Months, Expect Repeated Vaccinations\">prime minister<\/a> duels with US ambassador over politician saying Trump doesn&rsquo;t deserve Nobel Peace Prize<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2137667\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Polish Prime Minister <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/3889930\/poland-donald-tusk-explosion-railroad-sabotage\/\">Donald Tusk<\/a> dueled with the U.S. ambassador to <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/poland\/\">Poland<\/a> after the latter voiced outrage over comments the country&rsquo;s parliamentary speaker made suggesting President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump<\/a> didn&rsquo;t deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, U.S. ambassador to Poland Tom Rose announced that the U.S. would be severing all &ldquo;further dealings, contacts, or communications&rdquo; with Marshal of the Sejm W&#322;odzimierz Czarzasty, over &ldquo;outrageous and unprovoked insults&rdquo; directed against Trump.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4447408\/vance-says-olympics-one-few-things-unites-country\/\">Vance says Olympics is one of few things that &#8216;unites&#8217; the country<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4447071\/maria-corina-machado-venezuela-elections-could-occur-within-year\/\">Machado posits Venezuela elections could be held in less than a year&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4446961\/starmer-apologizes-epstein-victims-appointing-mandelson-ambassador\/\">Starmer apologizes to Epstein victims for appointing Mandelson as ambassador<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The comments, Rose said, have made Czarzasty a &ldquo;serious impediment to our excellent relations with Prime Minister Tusk and his government.

You do not tolerate being insulted and neither will we,&rdquo; he <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/USAmbPoland\/status\/2019417527504527550?s=20\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Czarzasty has been critical of Trump previously, but his most recent comments touched a nerve. Responding to Trump&rsquo;s threats to take Greenland and tariffs, the Sejm Marshal denounced the president as following a &ldquo;policy of force&rdquo; in international affairs, saying it made him unworthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This is a breach of the politics of principles and values, often a breach of international law,&rdquo; he told reporters.<\/p>\n<p>He also repeatedly bashed Trump&rsquo;s downplaying of other <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/nato\/\">NATO<\/a> allies&rsquo; roles in the Global War on Terror, framing his criticism of Trump around respect for Polish veterans.<\/p>\n<p>Czarzasty stood defiant after Rose&rsquo;s rebuke, saying he wouldn&rsquo;t take back his comments.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In line with my values, I stood up for Polish soldiers fighting on missions and did not support the nomination of President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/realDonaldTrump\">@realDonaldTrump<\/a> for the Nobel Peace Prize,&rdquo; he said in a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/wlodekczarzasty\/status\/2019429250424537509?s=20\">post<\/a> on X. &ldquo;I consistently respect the USA as Poland&rsquo;s key partner. That is why I regretfully accept the statement by Ambassador Tom Rose, but I will not change my position on these fundamental issues for Polish women and men.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Tusk stepped into the dispute on X, taking the side of his governing coalition ally.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Mr. Ambassador Rose, allies should respect each other, not lecture each other,&rdquo; Tusk said in a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/donaldtusk\/status\/2019437938350989348?s=20\">post<\/a> on X. &ldquo;At least this is how we, here in Poland, understand partnership.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Rose responded with a lengthy post in a notably more respectful, though still hostile, tone than his post against Czarzasty.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m assuming your thoughtful and well-articulated message was sent to me by mistake, because surely you intended it for the Speaker of the Sejm, W&#322;odzimierz Czarzasty, who&rsquo;s despicable, disrespectful and insulting comments about President Trump <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/POTUS\">@POTUS<\/a> were so potentially damaging to your government.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Mr. Prime Minister, I have nothing but the greatest respect and admiration for your lifetime of bold leadership and for your decades of contributions that strengthened the U.S.&ndash;Poland relationship,&rdquo; Rose wrote. &ldquo;You Sir have truly been a model ally and great friend of the United States.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>He then voiced his assurance that Tusk agreed that any insults or denigrating rhetoric toward Trump, &ldquo;the greatest friend Poland has ever had in the White House,&rdquo; was the last thing a Polish leader should do. He repeated his vow to always defend the U.S. president without &ldquo;hesitation, exception or apology.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The situation deteriorated further when Polish MP Roman Giertych stepped into the ring. One of the most enigmatic figures in Polish politics, the former <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >deputy prime minister<\/a> under a right-wing government, has since taken a left-wing turn, now in the Sejm as part of the liberal Tusk&rsquo;s governing coalition.<\/p>\n<p>In a lengthy post on X, Giertych said Rose was being &ldquo;completely outrageous,&rdquo; compared Trump to the infamous Roman emperor Nero, and demanded he resign.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Your President first insulted Polish soldiers and then demands support for his dreams of receiving the Nobel Prize,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;The times when Nero, under threat of punishment, demanded recognition for his musical talents have been regarded as the beginning of the decline of the Roman Empire. From the Polish perspective, Donald Trump&rsquo;s efforts to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize &hellip; are similar to Nero&rsquo;s demands for awards and praise.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If you do not like the Polish authorities, please change your job,&rdquo; Giertych said. &ldquo;In Poland, Poles will democratically decide who holds the highest offices. Please come to terms with that. And please tell your President to apologize to Polish soldiers, and especially to the families of those of our heroes who fell while carrying out a NATO defense mission.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Not all of Poland was united against Rose. Polish Minister of the European Parliament, Dominik Tarczynski, appeared to back Rose, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/D_Tarczynski\/status\/2019416232534118498?s=20\">quoting him<\/a> on X, saying, &ldquo;communists have always harmed Poland.
