President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen has said the assistance to Ukraine should be focused on restoring its export capacity, particularly for agricultural products, towards the world markets through relieving land borders.

She said that during a joint press conference with Prime Minister of Poland Donald Tusk and Prime Minister of Belgium Alexander de Croo in Warsaw on Friday.

Commenting on the situation at the Ukrainian-Polish border, which has been blocked by protesting Polish farmers and haulers, von der Leyen announced the European Commission's plans to update the road transport agreement, fully taking into account Poland's concerns.

"Today, the exports from Ukraine via the Black Sea route are significantly picking up, and that is good, because it relieves and it will continue to relieve land borders. Now our efforts should focus on supporting Ukraine in rebuilding its export capacities towards the world. That is important for us," she said.

The president of the European Commission also recalled that tomorrow two years since Russia "invaded its peaceful neighbor Ukraine" will be marked.

"We support them in their brave fight. I am confident that we can deal with the consequences of this war in Europe, because Ukrainians are fighting for the rule of law against the right of might, for democracy and freedom against tyranny. They fight for our values and our security, and this is why we stand by them for as long as it takes," she said.
