Polish and Ukrainian foreign ministers, Radosław Sikorski and Dmytro Kuleba, have talked about ways to increase arms and artillery ammunition supplies to Ukraine, Kuleba has said.

In September last year Poland stopped sending weapons to Ukraine amid a dispute over cheap Ukrainian grain exports. The previous government of Law and Justice (PiS) party announced that Poland was only carrying out arms and ammunition supplies to Ukraine that were earlier agreed to in contracts between the two countries.

On Monday, Kuleba reported on the social media platform X that he had met with Sikorski, the new Polish foreign minister.

“We focused on ways to increase weapons supplies to Ukraine, with a particular emphasis on artillery ammunition and frontline air defense to better protect our troops from Russian aviation and drone attacks,” Kuleba wrote. He added that he was grateful to Poland “for ensuring an uninterrupted delivery of military and humanitarian aid across the border.” Kuleba also wrote that he thanked Sikorski “for his efforts in advocating for critical decisions” in the U.S. Congress during his recent trip to Washington.

He added that the two “positively noted interaction between both countries’ sectoral ministries in seeking solutions for the situation at the Ukrainian-Polish border” and on how he had “stressed the importance of focusing more on the destabilizing effects of Russian grain imports on the European market.”
