"I think the problem of Crimea and Donbas, and the war that Russia is waging against Ukraine is a high priority for the European Union and EU member states such as Poland. Because Russia and Ukraine are Poland's neighbors. And this is the problem of the entire European Union, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs, and the United States. I must tell you I liked the Geneva format, which included the EU, the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia. It seems to me, this format includes all players in this conflict," he said in an interview to the Segodnya newspaper at the Warsaw Security Forum.
