Sikorski condemned Russia's attacks on civilian targets as war crimes and stressed the importance of Ukraine’s defense.

Both officials addressed concerns over Russia's hybrid warfare, including attacks on Poland’s border and violations of Polish airspace. Blinken reiterated the U.S. commitment to adapting its support for Ukraine and emphasized the collaboration with NATO to counter Russia’s aggression.
