David Aloyan, deputy secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council, met Cezary Tomczyk, Poland’s deputy minister of national defence.
Aloyan thanked Poland for its comprehensive support for Ukraine and stressed the importance of further strengthening defence cooperation between the two countries.
The sides discussed Ukraine’s priority defence needs and supplies of weapons required to counter Russian aggression. They paid particular attention to strengthening air defence, including its aviation component.
The talks also covered the Anti-Ballistic Coalition and the Freyja project. Ukraine is working with partners to move to the project’s practical implementation as soon as possible. Poland has joined the initiative.
The participants also discussed the presidential Drone Deal initiative and the framework for a future agreement between Ukraine and Poland. The agreement is intended to lay the groundwork for deeper technological cooperation, joint projects and the development of defence production.
Aloyan said Poland’s development of its own defence capabilities creates opportunities for cooperation between the two countries’ defence industries. He highlighted the importance of applying Ukraine’s combat experience and technological advances.
The sides confirmed their interest in deepening the partnership and working together on practical solutions to strengthen the security of Ukraine and Poland.
