The Polish president is in Kyiv at the moment. Our news desk has issued this brief report of his visit:
Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski has voiced strong support for Ukraine during a speech in the parliament in Kyiv, and urged other nations to back the country as its struggles against Russian interference.
Addressing the Verkhovna Rada on April 9, Komorowski said that Poland has "stretched out its hand to Ukraine and is doing everything -- and will do everything -- so that other states and peoples of the free Western world stretch their hands out to Ukraine as well."
"Poland's stretched hand is not just an indication of the current political trend but our understanding of the historic processes turning Ukraine to an equal and extremely important partner and neighbor," he said.
Komorowski added that "it is not about the past, it is about the future of the Ukrainian-Polish ties."
Komorowski was on a two-day visit and met with President Petro Poroshenko on April 8.
