WARSAW (Reuters) – Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said he was going to Turkey on Wednesday to discuss the latest developments on Ukraine and how Warsaw and Ankara and help ensure lasting peace in the region.
“We will talk about the role of Poland, the role of Turkey, when it comes to stabilisation in the region, when it comes to assessing the first round of talks that ended (…) in Saudi Arabia between Ukraine and the United States,” he said.
“… about the possible involvement of both Turkey and Poland, when it comes to ensuring lasting peace and calm in the region, including on the Russian-Ukrainian border.”
The United States agreed on Tuesday to resume military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine after Kyiv said it was ready to support Washington’s proposal for a 30-day ceasefire with Russia, the countries said in a joint statement.
“From our point of view, it is very important that NATO and European countries simultaneously effectively guarantee stability after achieving a ceasefire and peace on the Russian-Ukrainian border. And Turkey’s role here may be key,” Tusk said.
