Plans to extend a vast Cold War-era pipeline eastwards in order to bolster NATO’s fuel resilience are set to top the agenda at defence cooperation talks between French President Emmanuel Macron and Polish leader Donald Tusk in Gdansk on Monday.
"This summit aligns with the Franco-Polish Treaty of Friendship and Enhanced Cooperation, signed on May 9, 2025 in Nancy, which contains a provision on defence and mutual assistance that directly concerns France’s closest allies", an adviser to Macron told reporters ahead of the Monday's meeting.
