Poland ready to help Ukraine restore energy system after Russian attacks – Sikorski
Poland is ready to assist Ukraine in dealing with the aftermath of Russian strikes on its energy infrastructure.
Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski announced this during his visit to Lviv, Censor.NET reports, citing PAP.
According to Sikorski, Warsaw is already discussing specific forms of support with Kyiv — from supplying generators and electricity to accelerating the construction of power transmission lines between the two countries. Poland is also ready to make its liquefied gas terminal in Świnoujście available to Ukraine.
Sikorski emphasized that Russia’s recent attacks on Ukraine’s energy facilities are aimed at "intimidating people before winter" and constitute war crimes.
"Putin has already been charged with the abduction and Russification of Ukrainian children. I thought that would be enough for him — yet here come new attacks. This is something we must respond to by strengthening sanctions against Russia and increasing support for Ukraine," the Polish foreign minister said.
