Polish And Ukrainian Foreign Ministers Hold Meeting

Polish And Ukrainian Foreign Ministers Hold Meeting

They discussed Warsaw's military aid to Kiev and further sanctions against Russia.

Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski received a Ukrainian delegation led by Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga in Chobelin.

The Polish Foreign Ministry said that "the meeting confirms the strength of Polish-Ukrainian relations and the surrounding nature is conducive to sincere talks on jointly countering Russian aggression and imperialism."

The ministers discussed Poland's military aid packages for Ukraine and further EU sanctions against Russia, progress in the search and exhumation of victims of the Volyn tragedy and the quality of Polish education in Ukraine.

Sibiga said that he focused with his Polish counterpart on the development of intergovernmental cooperation, with the key topic being the building of defense capabilities, the creation of joint production facilities and investments in the Ukrainian defense industry.

"We also talked about how to make effective use of the mechanisms created within the framework of the SAFE instrument and the decision of the European Commission. First of all, the SAFE instrument and the decision of the NATO summit in The Hague on the possibility of using five percent for defense to strengthen Ukraine," the Ukrainian Foreign Minister said.

Sibiga also noted that Ukrainian-Polish good-neighborliness is the basis of Europe's strength, and unity can overcome modern Russian terror.

The minister also noted that today is a day of mourning in Ukraine for the victims of another Russian strike on Kiev, which killed 31 people, among them five children.

"Russian killers must be punished. Life must prevail. And we are capable of stopping Russia and restoring a just peace. But only through unity and strength. Ukrainian-Polish good-neighborliness is the basis of Europe's strength," the foreign minister said.

In addition, Sibiga assured that Ukraine highly appreciates Poland's all-round support, especially defense and humanitarian, and thanked for 46 military aid packages and preparation of the 47th package.

"Poland is a key logistical hub through which most aid flows. It should remain so, as it is in the interest not only of Ukraine, but also of Poland and the whole of Europe. Moreover, increasing this support is critical now," the minister emphasized.
