Ukraine War: Poland limits arms exports to its neighbour over grain row



In what represents a potentially major blow to Ukraine’s hopes of defeating Russia, one of Kyiv’s staunchest allies appears to have withdrawn key support for its wartorn neighbour during an escalating dispute between the two countries.

Poland’s prime minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, said: “We are no longer transferring weapons to Ukraine, because we are now arming Poland with more modern weapons.”

  1. The Eu should buy Ukrainian grain and ship it off to Africa, or some other place it’s badly neede as a goodwill gesture, since European grain markets don’t want a flood of Ukrainian grain to undermine their domestic product. This is not a time to fight between nations of a kind, but put on a brave and United front to a country ruling methodologies being locked in some other backward era.

  2. Real smart Polish prime minister let's not help Ukraine defend itself so we can defend ourselves better. Genius.. So instead of even preventing the war from coming to the Polish territory where there will be countless deaths and destruction even if it completely defeats the invasion. Instead of helping Ukraine stopped them and preventing that altogether.

  5. Poland support for Ukraine remains robust and we will continue to do so for as long as it takes to beat off the savage invader because this is in our national interest. However, strategically disregarding and questioning our support at the UN forum for protecting our domestic agriculture will not help the war effort. The issue is more complex though as Ukraine fights for its survival and our current government failed to ensure secured passages for the Ukrainian grain across the country so it could get delivered to its primary destinations (e.g some of the African countries and northern China). Because of this a big part of the Ukrainian grain were loaded in the Polish grannaries impacting badly our domestic agriculture what also became an opportunity for abuse and corruption (transited Ukrainian wheat for animal feed and for humans was marked the same as technical one and stored in the same granaries). I hope that the upcoming change of our current government, which surely goes down October this year, will bring a fundamental improvement in the format of 🇵🇱🇺🇦 cooperation.

  6. Why don’t Poland and the Eu just buy the grain at the market rate in line with local prices.
    They can then sell it on to other markets.
    I can understand frustration but the goal is to defeat Russia. Surely they can get heads together and find a solution.

  7. Basically Poland threw away their old weapons to replace them with new ones. and the war would have been a little longer until Ukraine's agriculture had been disrupted then Poland could have controlled the European grain market.
