Poland is preparing the next aid package for Ukraine, but the country’s own security is a priority.

This was stated by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk during a meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Lviv, CE Report quotes Ukrinform.

“We are working on the next package (of assistance to Ukraine - ed.), which will be ready in January 2025,” Tusk said.

At the same time, he noted that the security of Poland remained a top priority for him.

"We will provide Ukraine with the fullest possible support, but as Prime Minister of Poland, I will not hide the fact that the security of Poland and the Polish border remains my top priority," Tusk said.

He recalled that when it comes to the next aid packages for Ukraine, the Polish government should consider the significant length of the border with Belarus and Russia.

"There are frequent incidents on the border with Belarus. On the Polish-Belarusian border, shooting is heard almost every day," Tusk said.

He emphasized that investing in Poland's defense capabilities is also in the interests of Ukraine.
