07.07.2026It is incredibly important to show the unity of the Alliance today. There was a lot of emotions around it in the last few months. Poland invested in its Transatlantic and European relations. Europe has to be stronger and take greater responsibility. Poland has responded to this call first, as a model ally: 5% of GDP for defence standing, investing in the defence industry and Transatlantic relations.

24.06.2026- Our meeting today was a preparation for two events: tomorrow's conference of the Ministers of Defence of the V4 Group in Budapest and the NATO Summit that will take place in Ankara in two weeks. But first and foremost I would like to thank the Czech Republic, the Minister and the Czech Armed Forces for sending a hundred soldiers, as well as attack helicopters, to bolster the defence of the Polish border as part of the NATO operation established after the drone attack on Poland. Together, we are responsible for security on the eastern flank of NATO. The Czech Republic understands and remembers this very well. The involvement, dedication and prolongation of this mission was a personal decision of the Minister, for which I am sincerely thankful. It is an honour to work together in the North Atlantic Alliance - said the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.

I have heard a declaration of great solidarity, friendship and readiness to support every member state of the Alliance. These often repeated manipulations regarding Spain and its role in NATO and level of commitment are fairy tales. Spain is committed and ready for cooperation and joint action. Today's meeting was a chance not only to confirm allied commitments - Poland will also fulfil all its commitments towards Spain and our allies in NATO and the European Union - but also to prepare a stance for the NATO Summit in Ankara in two weeks - said the Deputy Prime Minister - Minister of National Defence, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz during the second day of the visit of the Polish delegation in Madrid.
