Europeans “will have to live up to history and the courage that it requires,” he insisted.
The West should respond to Russia’s military operation in Ukraine with “asymmetric escalation,” Sikorski insisted during a conference marking the 25th anniversary of Poland joining NATO in Warsaw on Friday.

The dramatic display of international solidarity saw dozens of high-ranking officials from across the globe convene inside the stately palace on Tuesday, determined to hold the regime accountable for, what they unequivocally called, a “war of genocide.”
The two-day emergency summit, organized under the auspices of The Hague Group -- a coalition co-chaired by Colombia and South Africa -- had representatives, ranging from such countries as Algeria and Brazil to Pakistan and Spain, in attendance.
