Project title:
"The legacy of Piłsudski and Petlura. Past, present and future of partnership between Poland and Ukraine."
Project description:
The geopolitical position of Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine determines the development of partner relations within subregional integration initiatives in Central Europe as complementary to the EU and NATO. Historically and nowadays, Ukraine is occupying an important place in the politics of Poland and Lithuania, and the concept of the Commonwealth of Three Nations has not lost its relevance also today. Building permanent and partner relationships between nations as part of the "Lublin Triangle" initiative on the political, economic, and above all civil society levels, will constitute a new quality of mutual relations in the conditions of hybrid threats to state security. In addition, it will serve to implement the idea of the union of the Three Nations within European and Euro-Atlantic structures.
