The Polish government will continue to work to ensure that Ukraine receives all the weapons it needs.



This was announced by Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki during a visit to the 18th Mechanized Division named after Tadeusz Buk in Siedlce.

Journalists asked Morawiecki and Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak whether the same pressure would be applied to transfer F-16 fighter jets and long-range weapons, following the Polish government's international pressure to transfer tanks to Ukraine.

We are coordinating with our partners in NATO all actions to strengthen Ukraine's defence forces, including bringing Patriot to Ukraine, as well as organising a strong tank group in the form of Leopards and modern tanks. All this was pressure from our side, but also agreements with the United States.

The defence minister said that Poland supported Ukraine in reality, not symbolically.
