We agree w/ 🇵🇱 Minister Sikorski that Europe is on a good trajectory building #DefenceReadiness.

We also agree that victory of 🇺🇦 is exsistential to the future European Security Architecture.

Grateful for 🇵🇱 leadership in defence on 🇪🇺 Eastern Flank.

Together we’ll deter Russia.

It was good to meet 🇵🇱 Minister Andrzej Domański in Warsaw.

🇵🇱 is a strong leader in #DefenceReadiness on Eastern Flank.

🇪🇺 funding via #SAFE is critical to boost both national and European defence&industry.

Europe needs ambitious #MFF for defence of our values&freedoms!

Poland is a great example how to take care about national, regional & European defence.

W 🇵🇱 Defence Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz we discussed SAFE loans, strategic enablers, military mobility & MFF with strong defence/space spending line. Using 🇪🇺 funds&working together brings #DefenceReadiness.

Pleased to meet new 🇭🇺 Minister of Defence Romulusz Ruszin-Szendi at #WSF2026.

New minister - new commitments to European #DefenceReadiness!
