"We do not accept concessions": Sibiga and Sikorski confirmed the supply of weapons through Rzeszow

The supply of American weapons to Ukraine will continue through the international transport hub at Rzeszow-Jasienka airport in southeastern Poland, Ukrainian and Polish Foreign Ministers Andriy Sibiga and Radoslaw Sikorski confirmed at a joint press conference in Warsaw on Wednesday, March 12.

The head of Ukrainian diplomacy participated on Tuesday in talks with US representatives in Jeddah and then held talks in the capital of Poland — Warsaw. Sibiga called the resumption of the supply of American weapons through Rzeszow an important outcome of the negotiations in Jeddah.

"This is the largest logistics center through which we will receive weapons, this decision is very important for the defense of Ukraine," he added.

Polish news agency PAP quoted Michael Waltz, the White House national security adviser, who announced in Jeddah that Washington would "immediately restore" its support for Ukraine, and this also applies to military equipment that will be transferred from US warehouses as part of deliveries agreed during the tenure of former US President Joe Biden.

Polish Minister Sikorski confirmed at a press conference on Wednesday that the volume of arms supplies through the Yasenka checkpoint "returned to the previous level." "If I understand correctly, Starlink also works," he said, referring to the dispute that has arisen in recent days on X with Elon Musk, the owner of the American company SpaceX, which operates the Starlink satellite Internet service.

On Sunday, Sikorski wrote on X: "Warsaw annually allocates about $ 50 million for Ukraine to use this service." Sibiga said that Poland has already supported the use of Starlink by Ukraine for a total of $ 200 million.

The Ukrainian minister called the results of the talks in Jeddah "very important, almost historic." He stressed that Ukraine had accepted the American side's proposal for a temporary ceasefire for 30 days, and now the Americans are turning to the Russian side on this issue, waiting for Moscow's response.

Sibiga said that Ukraine "more than any other state, wants an end to the war and the establishment of a lasting and just peace." "Kiev is ready to send a delegation of negotiators to develop a roadmap for a ceasefire," Sibiga said. Ukrainians, according to him, want a "just world" that would guarantee peace for Europe, so it is important that they receive support from their partners. "We don't need Minsk-3 andYalta-2," he said, referring to the previous Minsk agreements on the settlement of the situation on Ukraine and on The Yalta Conference of 1945 on the settlement of the situation after the Second World War, which led to the strengthening of the influence of the Soviet Union in Central Europe.

At a later press conference at the Ukrainian Embassy in Warsaw, Sibiga told PAP that during possible peace talks with Russia, his country would not make any concessions "to the detriment of territorial integrity and security." According to him, Ukraine's position is clear: no territorial concessions. "We do not accept the concept of concessions," the Ukrainian minister stressed.
