MOSCOW, September 18. /TASS/. Poland has become part of the anti-ballistic missile initiative spearheaded by Ukraine and some countries of the "coalition of the willing," Prime Minister Donald Tusk told reporters ahead of his meeting with Vladimir Zelensky.

"Now we can say that Poland has become part of this initiative," Tusk said at joint press conference with Zelensky, according to PAP agency.

In July, after a meeting of the leaders of the "coalition of the willing" countries in Paris, Tusk said that Warsaw needed time to assess whether its defense capabilities would allow it to join the initiative. At that time, 10 European countries, including Ukraine, moved to join it.
