Czarzasty, for his part, stressed that “without a free Ukraine, there is no free Poland,” and that Ukrainians have true friends and a reliable partner in Poland within the EU and globally.
Stefanchuk thanked the Polish people for their solidarity, comprehensive support, and assistance in Ukraine’s EU membership path and national reconstruction.
