President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky met with current OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland Zbigniew Rau.

The Head of State thanked the President and government of Poland, as well as the entire Polish people for their strong support to Ukraine during the full-scale Russian invasion.

"These are powerful neighbors who are helping us today, at this historic moment, supporting us in various directions," Volodymyr Zelensky said.

He also expressed gratitude to Poland for the assistance to forcibly displaced persons from Ukraine.

"They help in every way they can - taking in families, helping our children, helping families find jobs and shelter," the Head of State noted.

The President noted Poland's legislative initiatives in support of Ukrainians residing on the territory of this country. He reminded that the Verkhovna Rada passed a similar law regarding the special status of Poles in Ukraine.

"I believe that there should be as many such things as possible between our nations. Such unity at this time testifies to the common future of our nations, our independent sovereign states," he said.

Volodymyr Zelensky thanked Poland for defense assistance to Ukraine, in particular for the supply of Krab self-propelled artillery systems.

The Head of State called on Zbigniew Rau to make efforts to free Ukrainians who were members of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission from enemy captivity.
