The two countries have agreed to further action, especially tightening the cooperation of defence industries and enhancing capabilities together, as well as trainings and exercises for our troops - said Polish deputy prime minister W. Kosiniak-Kamysz after concluding his talks with the defence minister of Canada, David J. McGuinty.

“We want to create Polish-Canadian joint ventures, work together for a secure Europe and invest together in the Ukraine,” Kosiniak-Kamysz said.

In June this year, Canada has signed an agreement with the European Union regarding key partnership.

Poland and Canada have declared furthering cooperation in the area of nuclear energy, hydrogen and renewable energy sources. The issue of energy was also one of the key topics of discussion at the Chancellary of the Prime Minister. The Polish prime minister confirmed that Poland will not send soldiers to Ukraine, but will be responsible for logistical assistance and securing the eastern borders of the EU.
