The Prime Minister of Ukraine noted that for the past six months we have been living under a permanent blockade of the Ukrainian border by Poland. A blockade that has hit our economy and our ability to better defend ourselves.

He recalled that a month ago in Kyiv, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said that Poland is Ukraine's most reliable, most important ally in this deadly battle against evil.

"A month ago, we agreed that blocking the border is harmful to our countries and that it is important to prevent such incidents. A month has passed and we are back to this point again. Only now we see outright provocations.

We understand the difficulties faced by the Polish Government. And we are ready to help resolve this situation. We are going to meet," Shmyhal summarized.
