It is clearly stating that the East Shield project must be recognized as a European project – said Rafał Trzaskowski in Kołobrzeg.

– This is our national interest; anyone who contests this, anyone who doesn't understand this, doesn't understand what is most important, Poland's national interest – he continued.
