"Better give Ukraine weapons than send troops" - Polish Defense Minister

On March 1, Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz commented on French President Emmanuel Macron's statement about the possible presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, saying that the best option would be to send military equipment to Ukraine

This is reported by the Polish edition of Kresy.

"This is not a NATO initiative (to send troops to Ukraine - ed.).This is a French initiative," - the Polish minister explained.

He stressed that Poland considers it a much better option to supply military equipment to Ukraine.

"We have neither such plans nor such intentions. We say this directly and clearly to our allies. NATO has no such plans either," he said, referring to the possible deployment of troops.

Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz also reminded that Poland trains a third of Ukrainian soldiers.
