Zelenskyy's Victory Plan to be reassessed after US elections – Polish PM

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk believes that Ukraine's Victory Plan presented by Volodymyr Zelenskyy will be reassessed after the US presidential election. Source: Tusk at a conference after the European Council meeting in Brussels, as reported by European Pravda, citing Ukrinform news agency Details: The prime minister stated that leaders of various EU nations hold differing views on Ukraine's Victory Plan.

However, he remarked that this was not unexpected, as their attitudes towards Ukraine's NATO membership - the first point of the plan - also vary.

Tusk noted that the issue of Ukraine's NATO membership was first raised during Lech Kaczynski's presidency in Poland, and even then, Warsaw supported "opening the membership perspective for Ukraine". "Nothing has changed here: we stand in solidarity with Ukraine on this issue," the Polish prime minister said. Tusk mentioned that it is challenging to determine "how realistic Zelenskyy's plan is, as much depends on the outcome of the US presidential election".
