Details:Szłapka noted that European leaders consider it vital to preserve unity and ensure that Ukraine remains a sovereign state.

"So that it [Ukraine – ed.] has no restrictions regarding its armed forces, relations with third countries, or a possible veto concerning the EU or NATO," he added.

He also stressed that "territorial issues" must depend exclusively on Ukraine.

The government spokesman said that, from Poland’s perspective, it is essential to maintain unity on Ukrainian matters among key political actors within the country, particularly between the government and the president.
