Zelenskyy shared the update on social media, expressing appreciation for the unwavering support and highlighting a new form of cooperation, describing it as a Polish credit for Ukraine.

"We value this steadfast assistance. There's a new dimension to our interaction for larger-scale weapon acquisitions for Ukrainian needs – a Polish credit for Ukraine," wrote Zelenskyy.

He further disclosed discussions with Tusk on the potential for joint arms production.

Arriving in Kyiv on January 22, Tusk emphasized the importance of resolving all conflicts with Ukraine and reiterated his commitment to being Ukraine's "most reliable ally in the deadly struggle against evil."

During a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart, Denys Shmyhal, Tusk paid tribute to those who sacrificed their lives in the fight against Russian aggression.

It's worth noting that the last official reports of military aid from Poland to Ukraine date back to spring 2023, and since then, Warsaw has primarily provided humanitarian assistance. In September 2023, former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki stated that Poland was focused on rearming its own army and did not transfer military aid to Ukraine.
