Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in Poland on Thursday following a summit of the European Council in Brussels.
State news agency Ukrinform reported that Zelenskyy will hold his first meeting with Polish President Karol Nawrocki since the latter took office in August.
According to the Polish president’s press programme, the leaders will start with a bilateral meeting, followed by talks between their respective delegations. A media briefing is also planned.
Polish presidential spokesman Rafal Leskiewicz confirmed on social media platform X that Warsaw proposed a meeting on 19 December, with final details of the visit being finalised. “The main topics of the talks in Warsaw will include security, economic, and historical matters,” he said.
Polish state news agency PAP reported that Zelenskyy may also meet Prime Minister Donald Tusk, depending on the length of the European Council summit.
Earlier on Thursday, Zelenskyy attended the European Council summit in Brussels, where he urged European leaders to use frozen Russian assets worth €210 billion ($246 billion) as collateral to provide a loan to Ukraine.
“The decision now on your table – to fully use Russian assets to defend against Russian aggression – is one of the clearest and most morally justified decisions that could ever be made,” he said.
