“France will be the joint-host and the patron of the Kielce military expo” – Republic of Poland Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced at the joint press conference with the French President Mr Francois Hollande – As you all know, the state of Poland always makes the efforts of bringing our partners to the expo.

Our cooperation with France is of key-importance with respect to this sphere; the parties fully understand their mutual needs and interests. I am convinced that within the next few or few dozens of months this will also produce tangible results” added the Prime Minister.
