Poland has no plans to send troops to Ukraine, Tusk says
At a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, who is on an official visit to Warsaw, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk commented on the possible deployment of Polish troops to Ukraine
This was reported by Radio Liberty.
‘I want to put an end to speculation about the potential presence of troops of a particular country in Ukraine after a truce, ceasefire or peace. Mr President understands this, we have talked about it. Decisions on Poland's actions will be made in Warsaw and only in Warsaw. So far, we have no plans for such actions. We will cooperate with France, and not only with France, on solutions that will primarily protect Europe, as well as Ukraine, from the resumption of the conflict, if an agreement on a truce or perhaps peace can be reached,’ Tusk said.
Macron, in turn, said that the West is interested in finding a solution that takes into account the interests of Ukraine and Europe.
Macron's arrival in Warsaw was reported earlier by Espreso correspondent Maria Chernyakhivska. She noted that during the meeting, the leaders will discuss further assistance to Ukraine, current international events and the future of transatlantic relations.
The conversation will also focus on the priorities of Poland's presidency of the Council of the European Union, which will begin on 1 January 2025. It should be noted that Poland's six-month presidency will be held under the slogan ‘Security, Europe!’.
Macron also met with Polish President Andrzej Duda today.
