In connection with Russia's armed attack on Ukraine, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki addressed the 49th session of the Sejm. The head of government presented the current situation and further planned measures. Among the most important were strong sanctions, the need to militarily strengthen the eastern part of NATO and the EU and not to succumb to Russian disinformation and propaganda. Ukraine's struggle is also a struggle for the freedom of the whole of Europe. The Prime Minister stressed Poland's commitment to providing humanitarian aid to the victims of the conflict.

The Council of Ministers adopted a draft Homeland Defence Act. It is a response to the increasingly difficult geopolitical situation in the region. The proposed changes are aimed at strengthening the Polish army – increase in the number of soldiers to around 300,000, increase in the budget for defence, as well as technical modernisation of the army. Moreover, the Act organises regulations concerning the Polish Armed Forces. One document will contain regulations that were previously scattered across a dozen different acts.

Global challenges and international order are the main themes of this year's Munich Security Conference. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki participated in a panel on East-West relations and regional security. The discussion among heads of state and government, foreign and defence ministers, parliamentarians as well as representatives of the media and academia on current international security issues continues.

Thanks to government support amounting to 60% of the investment value, the newly built facilities will meet the highest standards of medical assistance. The creation of the new Medical Air Rescue base is accompanied by the construction and modernisation of the adjacent road infrastructure. Almost PLN 4 million, accounting for 80% of the funds for this project, comes from the state budget.

In the last two years alone, the Government Road Construction Fund has allowed completing 14,000 km of road investment projects supported by nearly PLN 10 billion worth of funding. This means an improvement in road safety and a systematic increase in the attractiveness of more areas for new investments. Today, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki announced the results of another call for municipalities and districts across Poland. In total, this translates into PLN 2.7 billion funds for building new and renovating existing local roads with a total length of 3.9 thousand km. The support for local self-governments' activities will enable the creation of a coherent and integrated road transport system throughout the country.

On 14 February, the President of the European Council held a videoconference with the heads of government of Poland, Finland, Greece, the Netherlands and Slovakia. The talks primarily concerned the issue of security in the region, with a particular focus on Russia’s actions towards Ukraine.

The government strives to equalise development opportunities across Poland. During his visit to the Zatory Educational Facility, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki signed an agreement on grants for “Supporting children and grandchildren of state farm workers in digital development”. Valued at more than PLN 500 million, the new grant launched under Operational Programme Digital Poland aims to improve the accessibility of computers and the internet for residents of former state-owned farms. As many as 1,606 municipalities have already applied for co-financing and are set to purchase more than 215,000 pieces of electronics. The project is financed by the European Regional Development Fund.

On 10 February 2022, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki met in Warsaw with the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Boris Johnson's visit is a proof of allied solidarity in bilateral relations and in NATO, in the face of threats to European security. Prime Ministers discussed security in the region, particularly with regard to Russia's actions against Ukraine. After the meeting at the Prime Minister's Office, both prime ministers visited British and Polish soldiers at the military base in Wesoła.
