19.04.2025Day Putin's Easter Ceasefire Proves Hollow While Polish Storms Rage
Morning coverage focused on severe storms that caused flash floods, power outages, and over 600 firefighter interventions across Poland. Weather issues remained a consistent theme throughout the day, particularly affecting the Podkarpacie region.

By midday, domestic political discourse centered on Prime Minister Tusk's Easter message and continued analysis of Trzaskowski's struggling presidential campaign, described by some commentators as being in "collapse" amid Nawrocki's rising position.

The afternoon and evening were dominated by Putin's surprise announcement of an Easter ceasefire in Ukraine starting at 19:00 Polish time. Initial reports of the ceasefire quickly evolved into skepticism as Ukrainian sources reported continued Russian attacks despite the announcement. Zelensky responded with his own proposal to Putin, which observers suggested would "reveal Russia's true intentions." By evening, air raid alarms sounded twice in Kyiv, reinforcing expert assessments that the ceasefire might be preparation for a new offensive.

Wojna handlowa trwa w najlepsze. I niech was nie zwiedzie zawieszenie najbardziej drakońskich stawek celnych przez Donalda Trumpa na 90 dni. Raz, że nie oznacza to powrotu do punktu wyjścia – w mocy pozostają cła sektorowe (np. auta, aluminium, farmaceutyki). Dwa, że zawieszenie dotyczy wszystkich z wyjątkiem Chin. A przecież nie jest żadną tajemnicą, że to właśnie nowe ułożenie relacji handlowych z Pekinem jest najważniejszym celem ekonomicznym obecnej administracji USA.

Pytanie, jak w tych nowych ramach zdefiniujemy interes Polski, pozostaje jednak otwarte.
