Ukraine, Poland and UK agree on accord to combat Russian aggression | |
2022-02-18 | |
"This will demonstrate our commitment to further strengthening the strategic cooperation and engagement between our 3 nations on the highest priority issues in support of Ukraine," the three said. "We will work together to advance our cooperation, which includes but not limited to co-ordinating support to the International Crimea Platform, increasing our collaboration on cyber security, energy security, and boosting strategic communications to counter disinformation," they added. The three said that the United Kingdom and Poland stood in solidarity with Ukraine in helping the former Soviet Union defend its independence and sovereignty and would provide Ukraine with support. The joint statement also offered a thinly veiled rebuke at Russia, without naming the country specifically, for its efforts at trying to dictate whether Ukraine should be a part of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). "We reiterate that each European State is free to choose or change its security arrangements, including treaties of alliance, and no State can consider any part of Europe as its sphere of influence," the three said. The prime ministers of Poland and Ukraine signaled earlier this month that a trilateral cooperation was in the works. | |
