Defence24 reported the information.

“Russia has always tried and will continue to try to drive a wedge in our (Ukraine-Poland - ed.) relations, but we believe in the wisdom of our peoples and governments. We have a great and glorious history. And Russia has always been our opponent, and often even our enemy. And together we have repeatedly overcome it,” Budanov said.

According to him, Poland has provided Ukraine with maximum support since the first days of the war. 

“We will always remember this and be grateful to the Polish people and the leadership of the Polish state. As we are neighbors, the security issues of our region automatically concern both Poland and Ukraine. This is our common cause,” he emphasized.

  • Commenting on the possibility of holding elections in Ukraine during the war, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said that Kyiv should decide on such issues on its own.
