Czech-Polish intergovernmental consultations led by the prime ministers of both countries, Peter Fiala and Donald Tusk, continue in Prague on Wednesday.

Aid to Ukraine, among other things, is being discussed during the negotiations, Ukrinform reports with reference to PAP.

"The Czech side said that the governments would discuss cross-border cooperation, energy security, nuclear energy cooperation, transport infrastructure, migration, flood protection, as well as other key geopolitical issues. The issue of support for Ukraine and Poland's preparation for next year's presidency of the EU Council will also be discussed," the report reads.
