The need for continued support for Ukraine will be the message of the President of the Republic of Poland, Andrzej Duda, at the Council of Europe Summit. “There can be no such thing as war-weariness,” the Polish leader said before the rally in Reykjavik.
The 4th Summit of Heads of State and Government of the Council of Europe kicks off in Iceland’s capital on Tuesday.
President Duda pointed out that Council of Europe summits with the participation of Heads of State and Government take place at exceptional and ground-breaking moments, and this is only the fourth such meeting.
As you can see, today there is such a moment. It is, of course, related to what is happening today in our part of the world, in Eastern Europe, in the face of Russian aggression in Ukraine.
Duda said.

He announced that Council of Europe leaders will discuss how to stop Russian aggression, how to help Ukraine drive the Russians out of its internationally recognized borders and regain control over them, and how to help Ukraine rebuild itself.
I think some kind of new order in Europe, I hope, in the future with Ukraine joining the European Union and NATO, these are the topics that will be most vivid here
added the president.
Duda said his message at the summit will be the need to continue supporting Ukraine.
There can be no such thing as tiredness with this situation, tiredness with war, that if we agree that Russian imperialism will win by conquering the land of Ukraine, in a moment we will have another war caused by Russian imperial ambitions
emphasized the president.
The Council of Europe is an international governmental organization that unites almost all European countries and several countries outside the continent. It was established on May 5, 1949 as a result of the signing of the Treaty of London by 10 countries: Belgium, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Ireland, Luxembourg, Norway, Sweden, Great Britain and Italy. It currently has 46 members and is based in Strasbourg. The organization is mainly concerned with the promotion and protection of human rights, democracy and the rule of law.
