Details: When journalists asked whether Sikorski was aware of any initial agreements between the parties in Saudi Arabia, he said that Sybiha would brief him on Wednesday 12 March.
“Not yet, but the Ukrainian foreign minister will be at my office tomorrow morning and will brief me on the matter,” the Polish foreign minister said.
Sikorski described the fact that Ukrainian-American talks were taking place in Saudi Arabia as “very good”.
When asked about Warsaw’s expectations from the talks, Sikorski stated that Polish diplomacy “works for a just peace where the rights of the victim of aggression are upheld”.
He also expressed satisfaction that the US had confirmed the continued uninterrupted operation of Starlink terminals in Ukraine, which Poland funds through a commercial agreement with SpaceX.
