Poland will use the period of its OSCE chairmanship in 2022 to raise the issue of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

"Mr President [Zelensky] mentioned Poland’s presidency [of the Council of the European Union] in 2025 but I will note that Poland will chair the OSCE in 2022. And there, I assure you that the Ukrainian issue, the issue of Ukraine's sovereignty and borders, will be on the agenda, and Ukraine can rely on Polish support," President of Poland Andrzej Duda said at a joint briefing with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on Monday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

October 11-13, President of Poland Andrzej Duda makes a state visit to Ukraine. After the meeting with President Zelensky, Duda will also meet with Verkhovna Rada Speaker Dmytro Razumkov and Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

On Tuesday, Duda will visit the city of Odesa, where Ukraine-Poland Economic Forum will be held and a cooperation agreement between the ports of Odesa and Gdansk will be signed.
