One of Ukraine's staunchest allies, Poland, has said it is no longer supplying weapons to its neighbour, as a diplomatic dispute over grain escalates.

Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said Poland's focus was instead on defending itself with more modern weapons.

Other conservatives will likely want to follow suit

Not to be mean, but in Poland's case it means: right-wing populists running on nationalism (we fight for you against the evil EU/Germans trying to destroy our country and against immigration) and retarded christian family values (anti-lbgtq, anti-abortion).

Going by your other reply: From an US perspective you should know the drill and what kind of conservatism is meant here.

what i tried to express elsewhere is "conservative" in the U.S. could mean something comparatively mild, like raise the kids, pay your bills, love your spouse, etc, all the way to violent fascism at the other end. so maybe the spectrum is like that in Poland, I don't know. I've heard some shit, but I don't know.
