Quote: “Since the beginning of [the Russian] full-scale aggression, Poland has approved 44 packages of military support for Ukraine. The total cost of Polish government support, excluding billions of dollars donated to refugees, in the first two years of the conflict amounted to approximately US$9 billion,” Sikorski said.
He underlined that Poland had signed the G7 declaration on joint long-term obligations to Ukraine.
“As a neighbouring country and a military, humanitarian and energy hub, we want to participate in the formation of these obligations, and not observe them from the outside while others do it,” he stated.
