Quote: "The Ukrainian side asked for a meeting with the Polish president. This means that perhaps they have realised they went too far."

Background:

  • The presidents of Ukraine and Poland met twice during the NATO summit in Ankara: at the official leaders' dinner, and the following day on the sidelines.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described the meeting as "an important and necessary conversation".
  • Nawrocki reported details of his meeting with Zelenskyy in Ankara, saying that the two leaders had been "unable to resolve the historical issues".
