On Monday, July 27, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba met with the head of the Polish Foreign Ministry Jacek Czaputowicz in Warsaw, during which he proposed Poland to join international platform for the de-occupation of Russian-annexed Crimea. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"international platform  for the de-occupation of Russian-annexed Crimea, which we are initiating, will soon reach the final stage of creation. Poland can not only participate in it, but play a leading role. I am convinced that the Polish side has all the possibilities for this,"- Dmytro Kuleba stressed.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland Jacek Czaputowicz positively evaluated this initiative of Ukraine and assured that the Polish side would consider the invitation.

In addition, the interlocutors noted that so far there is no reason to change the EU policy towards Russia, until Russia has changed its aggressive policy towards Ukraine.

"And even a conversation about any new policy towards Russia can only begin when Russia takes real steps to implement the Minsk agreements,  to end aggression and de-occupation of Ukrainian territories,"-  said the head of the  Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.
