Abstract

This study investigates Poland’s viewpoints on NATO by examining President Andrzej Duda’s statements. 41 of Duda’s speeches have been subjected to critical discourse analysis. As a result, 7 discursive arguments are identified. (1) Duda concentrates on the idea of the geopolitical situation to discuss security and (2) focuses on transatlantic relations. (3) Duda considers NATO cooperation essential for Poland’s security and (4) argues that NATO has been established on the tenets of freedom and security. (5) Duda states that Poland’s membership in NATO is a way for it to demonstrate its sovereignty. (6) Duda thinks that NATO’s infrastructure must be increased to offer more collective security and (7) NATO’s new strategic concept must take into consideration the changes that have been brought about by Russia’s assault on Ukraine.
