The meeting will take place on the sidelines of a two-day NATO summit starting in Brussels on July 11 as an “initiative by the Ukrainian side,” Krzysztof Szczerski, chief of staff to President Duda, said on July 9, as quoted by Poland’s PAP news agency.

Szczerski added that the planned presidential talks showed that dialogue between Poland and Ukraine “is intense and sustained, and does not require external impulses.”
