The purpose of the meeting is to ratify the Kyiv government "the unequivocal support from the entire European Union for Ukraine 's sovereignty and independence and present a comprehensive aid package".
For his part, the spokesman for the Polish government, Piotr Müller, reported that the meeting "is organized in agreement with the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, and the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen."
He also explained that the international community was informed of the delegation's trip through various entities, including the United Nations (UN).
security authorities
According to European Union sources, the representatives of these three countries were warned of the risks of traveling to Kyiv, since the attacks by Russian troops have intensified and they have surrounded it.
One of the security problems that they could encounter is an accidental or intentional attack, which would put at risk the integrity of the visitors, whose countries are members of NATO.
According to the agreement of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, if a member is attacked, the rest of the participants must respond forcefully.
The delegation is made up of the Prime Ministers of Poland, Mateusz Morawiecki, of the Czech Republic, Petr Fiala, and of Slovenia, Janez Jansa.
