The new Czech president will visit Poland after his inauguration

The Czech president-elect Petr Pavel said on Monday that he would visit Poland on March 16-17, after his official inauguration on March 9. Pavel will come to Warsaw after visiting Bratislava and will later go to Berlin on March 21.

Speaking about Joe Biden's visits to Kyiv and Warsaw, Pavel said that he expects the US president to ensure that "we are all in the same boat. From the US to our European allies." He added that he also expected to provide Ukraine with "everything that is needed for effective defense" against the Russian invasion in a short time.
