Abstract: Relations between Ukraine and Poland remain relevant for research. However, these bilateral relations have existed for a long time. However, during the Russian invasion of our countries, relations between Poland and Ukraine became increasingly close. Since 2014, at all international forums, the Republic of Poland has strongly advocated the need to increase pressure on the Russian side to restore the territorial integrity of Ukraine within the recognized borders. The war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine united representatives of all political parties and the armed forces of the Polish state and society with the full support of Ukraine. At the international level, the Republic of Poland supports the need to increase the pressure of the international community on the Russian Federation with the aim of immediately ending the war against Ukraine and restoring the territorial integrity of our country within known borders. Thus, Warsaw actively uses bilateral and multilateral tools to strengthen the international arena in favor of Ukraine. At bilateral meetings, in particular in the European Union and NATO, as well as in international organizations, Polish leaders constantly emphasize the need to strengthen sanctions against the Russian Federation and provide military, economic and humanitarian aid to our country. Poland has become an important ally and loyal friend for us in the struggle for independence and sovereignty, because it itself has repeatedly suffered from Russian aggression and no one understands how important support is in such difficult situations. Even before the full-scale invasion, Poland actively supported Ukraine and declared that it would help with weapons and ammunition in the difficult struggle and continues to help us, and delivers a significant amount of weapons. Poland is one of the first countries that accepted the most of our refugees. The object of the study is the formation and development of Ukrainian-Polish relations in the post-bipolar period, primarily their security component.
