KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk is vowing to keep supporting Ukraine against Russia’s nearly 2-year-old invasion. He announced a new military aid package during a visit to Kyiv on Monday. It includes a loan to purchase larger weapons and a commitment to finding ways of manufacturing weapons and munitions together. After meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Tusk said they had reached “an understanding” to resolve through bilateral talks their differences over grain shipments and trucking. Those issues recently soured ties between the neighbors. Tusk, who returned to power last month and is keen to show that a change in government won’t alter its Ukraine policy, also met with his Ukrainian counterpart, Denys Shmyhal.
