Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Monday to discuss ongoing Russian aggression and NATO's support ahead of a pivotal summit in Washington.

Zelenskyy paused in Warsaw en route to the NATO summit, expected to focus on reliable long-term security and military training for Ukraine, over two years after Russia's invasion.

The talks followed a tragic missile strike by Russia that killed at least 20 people, including children, in Ukraine's capital.

Poland, one of Ukraine's strongest allies, has provided around USD 4 billion in military aid. President Andrzej Duda will represent Poland at the NATO summit, discussing increased coordination within NATO for Ukraine's defense.
