Polish-Swedish intergovernmental consultations were held in Gdynia, the heart of the Polish Navy. "I am very glad that in this symbolic place we are finalising another stage of our friendly cooperation with Sweden. Today we signed many agreements, including the one on the purchase of 3 submarines for the Polish Navy," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk. This is the most important agreement in the history of the Polish Navy. The meeting also confirmed that cooperation between Poland and Sweden is entering a new stage of strategic partnership. The two countries are already working together to keep the Baltic Sea region safe and free from the activities of the Russian shadow fleet, from provocations and from military threats. An expression of this is the establishment of the Pact for the Baltic Sea, which will rest on political and military cooperation and on cooperation in the defence industry.

"I am glad that once again the eastern flank, with the full support of the European Union, has today shown complete unity and solidarity. Let this be a warning to those who are planning something bad against us," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk after the Eastern Flank Summit in Gdańsk. Poland, together with the other countries in the format, underlined the importance of the European Union's shared responsibility for the security of its eastern borders. The importance of maintaining strong transatlantic ties and defence cooperation with the United States was also stressed. The outcome of the meeting is the Gdańsk Declaration, which states that Russia remains the greatest, most direct and long-term threat to the security, peace and stability of the Euro-Atlantic area. The leaders also declared their commitment to developing joint defence projects, modernising infrastructure and increasing spending on security.

"The presence of European leaders is a sign to Poland, Ukraine, Europe and the whole world that the word 'solidarity' is not an empty slogan," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk during the opening session of the Ukraine Recovery Conference, held this year in Gdańsk. Over the next two days, Gdańsk will become the venue for debates devoted to the reconstruction of Ukraine, the mobilisation of international support and the strengthening of economic and investment cooperation for the country's post-war rebuilding. Yet the reconstruction of Ukraine is not only about raising buildings, power plants, schools and infrastructure, it is also about rebuilding community. The history of our continent shows that even after the most tragic conflicts it is possible to build lasting relations founded on truth, mutual respect and responsibility for the future.

"We are here together in the E5 format to confirm that our countries will safeguard European and transatlantic unity," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk after a meeting in Berlin with the leaders of Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Italy. The future of Europe, Ukraine and the entire Western world will depend on the ability to preserve that unity. Poland will act consistently to strengthen cooperation among the allies. Prime Minister Donald Tusk also drew attention to the particular role of the eastern-flank countries and announced measures to ensure their full representation in all cooperation formats concerning the security and future of the region.

"Everything depends on whether we return to a way of working based on trust and mutual loyalty," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk during the first meeting of the Visegrád Group heads of government in two years. The head of the Polish government stressed that the V4, made up of Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, can once again play an important role in shaping the European debate. He also noted that in key areas such as energy, migration, cohesion policy and agriculture, the countries of the region are united by more than divides them.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer signed the Treaty on Security and Defence Partnership at the Northolt military air base. "We want to defend a safe Poland and a safe United Kingdom, and to protect our values," the Prime Minister emphasized. Warsaw and London have elevated their bilateral relations to the highest level. The Northolt Treaty provides for cooperation in the areas of defence, the defence industry, and cybersecurity. The goal of both states is to effectively deter a potential aggressor, Russia. This is another strategic agreement concluded by our country, following the signing of a similar treaty with France in 2025.

"What we managed to achieve in 2023, and your brilliant victory, are testament to the fact that people are willing to defend values such as democracy, freedom, and the rule of law," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk following his meeting with Hungary's new Prime Minister Péter Magyar. For his first foreign visit after taking office, the Hungarian Prime Minister chose Poland. His visit marks the symbolic opening of a new chapter in Budapest's relationship with Europe. Péter Magyar also wishes to renew cooperation within the Visegrád Group - the important initiative linking Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia, through which four Central and Eastern European countries strengthen their standing on the international stage. Warsaw can offer cooperation on energy security here, including investment in infrastructure, so that the entire region becomes as self-sufficient as possible in terms of energy supply and sources.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk met in Rome with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. "Poland and Italy are ready for serious negotiations, which should conclude with a new treaty. Our two countries deserve relations at the highest possible level," the Prime Minister said. Warsaw and Rome are bound by friendship, shared history, and a commitment to the same values. The two countries also share positions on the most important European issues - including the war in Ukraine, the EU Emissions Trading System, and EU funds. Last year Poland signed a treaty deepening cooperation with France, and a similar agreement with the United Kingdom is planned for the end of May.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk visited the Vatican at the invitation of Pope Leo XIV, with whom he held a lengthy private conversation. "The Holy Father spoke of the need for peace, reconciliation, and the uniting of people of goodwill across the world," the head of government emphasised. The Pope's words and actions carry great weight, as they have the power to restore the moral order in public life as well. Leo XIV addressed the Polish people, urging them not to lose hope and to unite around positive values. The Prime Minister confirmed the invitation for the Pope to visit Poland, which the Holy Father accepted with joy.

"For me, the bilateral meetings were what mattered most - particularly at a time when there is so much confusion about what the Western community actually stands for," said Prime Minister Donald Tusk following the European Political Community summit in Yerevan. For Poland, the priorities today are security, strong relations with allies, and support for countries that bring stability to their regions. The head of government held talks with the leaders of Armenia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Ukraine, Hungary, and Slovakia. In an era of uncertainty about the future of the Western community, Poland must seek genuine partners in defence, energy, and security policy. On 27 May, Poland will sign a strategic cooperation treaty with the United Kingdom.
