Sweden and Poland to host international donor conference for Ukraine

Sweden and Poland will host an international donor conference for Ukraine in Warsaw on Thursday.

The aim is to get countries and organisations to commit money to help with the immediate humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, but also the country's more long-term needs.

In the past, Sweden and Poland have not always seen eye to eye on political matters, but Sweden's Minister for International Development Co-operation, Matilda Ernkrans, told Radio Sweden both countries have a strong commitment to Ukraine, and will both benefit from working together on this.
