Gen. Kukuła talked to the most important NATO commanders

The meetings took place on Monday on the sidelines of the Warsaw Security Forum taking place in the capital. The conference was attended by representatives of NATO military structures, headed by General Grynkewich.

During the bilateral meeting between General Kukuła and General Grynkewich, the issues of security of NATO's eastern flank, effective deterrence and readiness to respond to hybrid threats were discussed - said the General Staff of the Polish Army.

Gen. Grynkewich, who is the supreme commander of NATO allied forces in Europe, presented his "victory strategy" in a possible conflict with Russia during the conference.

The Chief of the General Staff of the Polish Army also talked with Adm. Giuseppe Cavo Dragone. According to a statement from the General Staff, the meeting focused on the military situation in Ukraine, risk assessment for the region's security in 2027, and the priorities of the work of the NATO Military Committee.

"The unity of the Alliance, determination and the ability to act decisively are the best response to threats and provocations," emphasized General Kukuła, quoted in the release.

The next meeting was held with General Michael Claesson, Sweden's defense chief. It was a continuation of talks held during the NATO Military Committee summit in Copenhagen last month.

The generals discussed the development of military cooperation, especially in the field of security of the Baltic Sea and strengthening the capacity for joint operations.

The General Staff reminded that an important element of Polish-Swedish defense cooperation is the participation of the Swedish armed forces in the protection of Polish airspace. JAS 39 Gripen aircraft participate in allied air defense activities.

The planned deployment of Swedish Patriot systems in Poland is intended to strengthen the protection of NATO's strategic logistics hub supporting Ukraine.

The communique also indicated cooperation in the maritime domain. It concerns, among others, implementation of the Orka program, training of Polish submarine crews in Sweden and developing capabilities for joint operations in the Baltic Sea.

Gen. Kukuła thanked Gen. Claesson for the solidarity and commitment of the Swedish Air Force in protecting Polish airspace. As emphasized, these activities contribute to strengthening the security of NATO's eastern flank.
