In a significant diplomatic move, Polish President Andrzej Duda arrived in Kyiv on Saturday for a high-stakes meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The visit underscores Ukraine's efforts to galvanize international backing as it continues to resist Russian aggression on the battlefield and in the air. The conflict, now in its fourth year, shows little sign of abating.

President Duda, known for his steadfast support of Ukraine, was warmly welcomed at the train station by Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, who hailed him as 'Ukraine's true friend.' This visit comes at a pivotal time when Ukraine is facing increased challenges from intensifying Russian attacks.

Meanwhile, Duda's successor, Karol Nawrocki, while committed to assisting Ukraine's defence efforts, has voiced his opposition to Kyiv's potential accession to Western alliances such as NATO, casting uncertainty over future diplomatic strategies.
