Zelensky: we were not left alone with the enemy, Polish brothers and sisters are with us

We were not left alone with the enemy, Polish brothers and sisters are with us; On the very first day of the war, it was clear to Ukrainians and Poles that there were no boundaries between us – physical, historical, personal, and human, said President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday.

The President of Ukraine spoke remotely on Friday during a ceremonial assembly of deputies and senators on the occasion of the 23rd anniversary of Poland's accession to NATO. Even before speaking, the participants of the assembly greeted Zelensky with a standing ovation.

Zelensky pointed out that when he became president in 2019, it was clear that Poland and Ukraine would have to go a long way due to cold relations.

"I wanted to go this road quickly, the road to warmth. I knew that we are naturally close to each other, Ukrainians and Poles," he said.

The Ukrainian politician also said that his people were fighting, inter alia, so that this bad time does not come for Poland and the Baltic states. 

"We fight together because we have strength. Together we are 90 million. Together we can do anything. It is the historic mission of Poland and Ukraine, to be leaders, to be together, to pull Europe out of the abyss and from the threat," Zelensky said.
