In conversation with the Polsat News channel, the Polish president stated that he does not want to create stress points between Kiev and Warsaw, although he said it is not easy, since there are "complex topics" between countries. However, he noted that he discussed these issues with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, and the best example of this was the presence of the Head of State in Lutsk, on the anniversary of the Volyn tragedy.
"It is also in the interests of Ukraine to find understanding with us on all difficult issues, including historical issues. Remember that Ukrainians have a lot of problems related to the previous World War II," Andrzej Duda said. He also stressed that Russian President Vladimir Putin attacked Ukraine to stop its integration into the European Union.
"If someone says that he is about to block Ukraine's access to the European Union, then he fits into the politics of Vladimir Putin," said Poland President, adding that he does not know if it is the intention of those politicians, What are in power now. "I would like to know what ministers, prime ministers are specifically referring to when such statements are made.
These are difficult issues, including for the Ukrainians themselves, who have to be taken into account, which have been silenced for years," he added. It should be reminded that at the end of July, Polish Defense Minister Vladislav Kosyak-Kaysh stated that Warsaw will not be able to agree to Ukraine's accession to the EU until the countries have completed disputes around the events in Volyn during World War II.
