Poland takes the presidency in the EU: focus on the security of Europe and Ukraine

Piotr Lukasiewicz, the acting chargé d'affaires of Poland in Ukraine, stated that Poland's presidency in the European Union will not affect the strategy of the United States, but the country will focus on the security of Europe and Ukraine.

'The main slogan of our presidency is security - security of Europe, but also security of Ukraine. Because these are two sides of the same problem. If Ukraine is safe, then, accordingly, Europe is safe as well,' said the head of the mission.

Moreover, during its presidency, Poland will try to accelerate Ukraine's process of joining the European Union, which will enhance security.

The presiding country can influence the consideration of issues that interest Poland and Ukraine, as well as the timelines for the passage of certain procedures.

'Our task will be to constantly remind that all of this needs to be resolved as quickly as possible. Poland will do everything possible in this direction and will do its utmost to accelerate Ukraine's accession procedures,' emphasized the acting chargé d'affaires.

After Poland, the presidency will pass to Denmark, which also supports Ukraine, so in 2025 the country will receive substantial support in the EU.
