MOSCOW, June 10. /TASS/. Poland has opposed the proposal to hand over to Ukraine funds from the 6.6-billion euro European Peace Facility, wholly or in part, Polish Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk said.
"This money is our money," Tomczyk said during a broadcast of the RMF FM radio. In his words, Warsaw will fight till the bitter end to receive the 500 million euro from this fund, which his country is entitled to.
He also accused Brussels of "trying to change the rules during the game."
According to the broadcast, Poland is supported by Slovakia.
"Countries that were the first to start supplying weapons [to Ukraine], such as Poland or Slovakia, whose aid has already been counted and whose compensations are ready to be paid, are not willing to agree to reduced payments. The countries that started providing support later, such as Germany, want the opposite," an unnamed diplomatic source told RMF FM.
