Ukraine did not receive an invitation to the military parade that will take place 15 in August in Warsaw to commemorate the Polish Army Day. At the same time, representatives from several other countries will participate in the event. This is reported by Glavkom, citing Suspline.
The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine confirmed that Ukrainian representatives were not invited to the parade. This year in Warsaw, Poland is preparing the largest military parade in its history. It is planned to include about 1800 servicemen, more than 300 units of ground equipment, and 60 aircraft.
Along with the parade, military personnel from the United States, Canada, Australia, Lithuania, Estonia, Sweden, Romania, and other states will participate. The largest group among foreign allies will be French troops, including a unit of the Foreign Legion.
At the same time, a naval parade will be held in Gdynia and Gdańsk. It will involve more than 20 ships, including frigates, corvettes, hydrographic vessels, and mine hunters.
Reminder: Poland may soon decide on transferring additional missiles to Ukraine for Patriot air defense systems. Warsaw continues consultations on this issue with the United States and NATO.
Deputy Defense Minister of Poland Magdalena Sekowska-Carnecka said that in making a decision, Polish authorities will first and foremost consider the security of their own country. Warsaw's position was also affected by the recent incident with a Russian missile that crossed into Polish territory.
By the way, 16 in July, Ukrainian military personnel participated in a ceremony marking the Storming of the Bastille in Paris. The festive military parade was held with the participation of French President Emmanuel Macron and almost 30 heads of state and government. Among the invited guests was President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy together with First Lady Olena Zelenska.
Ukrainian service members marched along the Champs-Élysées with representatives of the so-called Coalition of the Willing who support Ukraine. The ground portion of the parade was opened by about 500 states-participants of the coalition.
