The Prime Minister of Poland Mateusz Morawiecki met in Warsaw with the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic Peter Fiala.

They discussed support for Ukraine and opposition to russia, Moravetsky said on Twitter. 

"As on 15 March in Kyiv, so today in Warsaw, we are sending a clear message: Ukraine needs political support and humanitarian and military aid. Poland and the Czech Republic are building energy cooperation that will strengthen independence from russia. We will not pay in rubles for Ukraine's blood ", the Prime Minister of Poland stressed. 

Earlier, russia has cut off Poland and Bulgaria from gas in response to their refusal to pay in rubles instead of euros.

An ultimatum on ruble payments was issued by russian president in early April. This is due to the attempt to keep afloat russian economy affected by sanctions over the war in Ukraine. 

The European Union has warned that European energy companies will consider a violation of sanctions against russia the opening a second account with Gazprombank in rubles. 

More and more European countries start building energy independence from russia and refuse its oil and gas.
