From legal issues. Min. Sikorski, on the occasion of American appetites regarding Greenland, stated that Poland recognises Greenland as part of the Kingdom of Denmark. He jokingly added that Poland has no claims to Bornholm (a Danish island located between Poland and Sweden in the Baltic Sea).

💬 Ukraine is fighting, and rather successfully, defeated the Russians at sea for example. Ukraine has allies. We in Europe have said we will continue to support Ukraine come what may. | FM @radek-sikorski.bsky.social in an interview for @cnn.com / @fareedzakaria.bsky.social
