This is not merely a purchase of submarines. We have also just discussed the exchange of technological thought, the transfer of technology and equipment. This is not just a change in the face of the Navy. This is building new security architecture on the Baltic Sea - said the deputy prime minister Kosiniak-Kamysz after signing the agreement of cooperation regarding the acquisition of submarines for Poland.

The 32nd meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group (UDCG), in which the secretary of state in the ministry of defence Paweł Zalewski participated, was held on 16 December. The discussions were chaired by the ministers of defence of Great Britain and Germany

- It was a very good visit. We have signed a memorandum of understanding in defence between Poland and Turkey. It entails tens of points of cooperation, which we will now put into practice. From information exchange, shared military exercises, defence industry development, cooperation of intelligence and counterintelligence services to activities developing the operational capabilities of our militaries. We have agreed to a whole sequence of actions of inter-governmental cooperation between the governments of the Republic of Poland and the Republic of Türkiye, focused especially on national defence and cooperation within the North Atlantic Alliance - noted the deputy prime minister W. Kosiniak-Kamysz after the meeting with the minister of defence of the Republic of Türkiye.

- I am very grateful to all the soldiers from the Polish Armed Forces contingent in Turkey for their service, for being ambassadors of Poland in the world. Every soldier taking part in foreign missions performs an important service for our allies. Security does not wear the colours of any ideology or political party. Its colours are white and red. Security is our challenge, our obligation, but also our privilege. I am grateful to the hosts - Turkey, for conducting this mission together. But today, I am also grateful for the support Turkey lent to those Poles who suffered during the last flood. You have shown your solidarity and the strength of our relationship. Today, we are writing its next chapter - said the deputy prime minister in Turkey.

- We are at the Defence Industry Forum, on Polish-Swedish initiative. Everything changed the moment Sweden joined NATO. Since then, our history in the North Atlantic Alliance is very different. Since then, all our actions have acquired a completely new pace, especially in the Baltic Sea, for which I am very thankful. This is undoubtedly an important moment for Europe, for the world and for the relations between our countries. When we are together - in Warsaw, in Stockholm, in Brussels - Poland and Sweden are key partners, friends and allies for each other, on whom we and other countries can rely. On behalf of the people of Poland, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to such a high level of our relations, as well as thank the people of Sweden - the Kingdom of Sweden - for the support and aid, as well as being ironclad allies - said the deputy prime minister W. Kosiniak-Kamysz during the Polish-Swedish forum for security and defence.

- The first panel concerned the ability to deter, NATO strategy and plans, but also something that is important to us and that I stressed in my speech, the Eastern Sentry operation established on the request of Poland after the violations of our airspace. We believe that this operation should be not just an activity, but a steady, well-planned multi-stage action connected with Baltic Sentry, so that these two operations that Poland initiated can be part of NATO strategy. Another topic was the support for Ukraine and here Poland is the country that provides this support from the first day of the conflict in the Ukraine. Our crucial mission, appreciated by other member states of the Alliance, is the transfer and securing of equipment and humanitarian aid, participation of our soldiers and security services in it. This operation could not function without Poland - stressed the deputy prime minister W. Kosiniak-Kamysz in Brussels.
