02Poland will set up buffer zones in the border areas of Belarus

According to Xinhua News Agency,On June 10th, relevant departments of the Polish government held a meeting in the city of Biavistok, located in the northeast near the border with Belarus. Polish Prime Minister Tusk said at a press conference after the meeting that according to the resolution passed at the meeting, the Polish Ministry of the Interior will be responsible for building a buffer zone that is tens of kilometers long and 200 meters wide in this border area. The establishment of buffer zones aims to make it more difficult for illegal immigrants to cross the Polish border, while creating better conditions for Polish border police and soldiers to carry out their tasks. Tusk said that protecting border security is the responsibility of the state, but setting up buffer zones will inevitably have a negative impact on local residents. The government will provide necessary assistance to the affected residents, and relevant consultations are currently underway.


At the end of 2021, a large number of immigrants from the Middle East attempted to enter EU countries such as Poland and Lithuania from Belarus. Poland and other countries strengthen border control and strictly prevent illegal entry. But the issue of illegal immigration has recently resurfaced. At the end of May, Poland launched the "Eastern Shield" plan, announcing that it would invest 10 billion zloty to strengthen eastern border security. On June 6th, a Polish soldier who was stabbed by illegal immigrants in the border area died of serious injuries. After the incident, the Polish government reiterated its commitment to ensuring the safety of the border and law enforcement personnel.

01The US and Ukraine sign a 10-year security agreement to promote Ukraine's accession to NATO

Reuters reported that on June 13th, US President Biden and Ukrainian President Zelensky signed a 10-year bilateral security agreement to strengthen Ukraine's defense against Russian aggressors. It is understood that according to the agreement, the United States will support Ukraine's military development through training, joint planning, and cybersecurity efforts, and assist Ukraine in seeking compensation for the damage caused by Russia. In addition, the agreement also stipulates that if Ukraine is subjected to an armed attack, the United States and Ukraine will hold a meeting within 24 hours to discuss countermeasures. The agreement does not require the United States to send troops to defend Ukraine.


It is understood that Zelensky has been striving for Ukraine to join NATO, but NATO allies have not yet made a final decision. According to Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, once it is confirmed that any NATO member country has been attacked, it will be considered an attack against all NATO member countries, and other NATO member countries must respond immediately. The signing of this agreement is seen as a precursor to Ukraine's eventual accession to NATO, and the United States confirms its support for Ukraine's accession to NATO as a final outcome.
