Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel said at a joint press conference with Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydło, that both countries will run a joint humanitarian action in Syria, Turkey and Libya.
"Poland wants to be active when it comes to humanitarian aid," said Szydło, adding that she came out with a proposal to launch a Polish-German humanitarian project. "I am pleased that Chancellor Merkel has agreed. I think it will be a proof of our good relations and a symbol, which we want to show the EU and the path the Union should follow," Szydło said.
"We agree that the migration problem is one of the biggest challenges the EU faces," Merkel said. Referring to the humanitarian project, she said that it might be the construction of a school or a hospital. Merkel also said that the two leaders discussed next week's EU summit the Brexit matter.
