Marshal of the Sejm Wlodzimierz Czarzasty said that the US president doesn't deserve a Nobel Peace Prize
The US Embassy in Poland announced that it would cut ties with Polish parliamentary speaker Wlodzimierz Czarzasty after he said that President Donald Trump did not deserve a Nobel Peace Prize.
On Monday, Czarzasty denounced Trump's tariff policies and his plan to annex Greenland from Denmark. He also criticized the president for downplaying the contribution of America's NATO allies during the war in Afghanistan. Czarzasty further described Trump's proposed global Board of Peace as "illusory" and accused him of undermining the EU, the UN and NATO.
"I will not support President Trump's nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize because he doesn't deserve it," the Polish official said.
In a post on X on Thursday, US Ambassador to Poland Tom Rose accused Czarzasty of damaging bilateral ties. "Effective immediately, we will have no further dealings, contacts, or communications with Marshal of the Sejm Czarzasty," Rose wrote, citing "outrageous and unprovoked insults."
Czarzasty denied any wrongdoing. "I consistently respect the US as Poland's key partner. That is why I regretfully accept Ambassador Tom Rose's statement, but I will not change my position on these fundamental issues for Polish women and men," he wrote on X.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk responded by saying that "allies should respect, not lecture, each other."
In his reply to Tusk, the US envoy reiterated that Czarzasty's "despicable, disrespectful and insulting comments about President Trump" could damage relations with Washington. Rose described Trump as "the greatest friend Poland has ever had in the White House."

Trump sparked outrage among European officials and veterans last month when he claimed that America's allies "stayed a little back, a little off the front lines" in Afghanistan. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the remarks "appalling," prompting Trump to later praise UK soldiers on social media.
