Poland to stop supplying weapons to Ukraine over grain row

Poland has decided to stop supplying weapons to Ukraine following a dispute over grain imports, which led to criticism from President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the UN and the summoning of the Ukrainian ambassador by Warsaw.
The strained relations between Poland and Ukraine escalated when Poland joined Hungary and Slovakia in extending an EU ban on Ukrainian grain to protect its own farmers. This decision was strongly protested by the Ukrainian side.
The decision to halt weapons transfers by Poland may be linked to the upcoming parliamentary elections, as the ruling Law and Justice party has faced criticism for its stance on Ukraine. This move reflects Poland's intention to focus on arming itself with more modern weapons.
