Zelenskiy, Tusk Discuss Defence, History, Refugee Safety

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk met in the Polish city of Lublin.

They talked about how the two countries can work together to keep each other safe, especially from Russian attacks.

They also discussed a disagreement about history: Zelenskiy wants to honor a Ukrainian army group that fought in World War II, but many in Poland think that group was responsible for hurting Polish people.

The leaders said they would investigate those past crimes.

They also talked about how to keep Ukrainian refugees in Poland safe, because some people have been attacked.

Tusk said the attacks should stop.

The meeting was part of Zelenskiy’s visit to the United States and a way to keep Europe safer.
