Details: Duda, whose presidential term will end in 2025, said the Three Seas Initiative summit "is very important to him personally", and he is looking forward to the discussion of the outcome of 10 years of cooperation between its participants.

Quote: "But I believe, Volodymyr, that you will be able to arrive wearing a suit, as the president of a country that is no longer at war, as the president of a country that has returned to stability and restored peace and tranquillity.

This is my sincere wish from the bottom of my heart for Ukraine’s people and society. We really need peace in this part of Europe. And I sincerely believe that we will achieve it once we become stronger," Duda stressed.
