MOSCOW, December 19 (Sputnik) – The possible deployment of Polish troops to Ukraine is a «matter for discussion,» but no such talks are currently underway, Polish President Andrzej Duda said on Thursday.
He made these remarks before departing to Brussels to meet with NATO Secretary General Murk Rutte, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, and leaders of European states.
«There have not been such discussions so far. No one has ever proposed something that specific regarding what should happen; what is the formula? «Duda added.
Western countries have ramped up their military and financial aid to Kiev since the start of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine in February 2022. Moscow has repeatedly cautioned that arms supplies to Ukraine hinder any settlement to the conflict and directly involve NATO countries in the hostilities.
