Earlier in the day, Polish Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk told the Zet radio broadcaster that the Polish authorities do not in any way restrict the Ukrainian army from using Polish weapons, including against Russia.
"We saw the statement. Actually, this was quite obvious here even before this statement, there were no secrets about this," Peskov told reporters.
In the interview with the Zet broadcaster, Tomczyk said he believes other Western countries should also lift such limitations, saying that Ukrainians have the right to conduct a fight "anyway they want."
Poland continues to supply Kiev with ammunition and has already sent 44 military aid packages, the Polish politician said, adding that a new package is being prepared and that currently the total cost of the Polish military aid for Kiev is 15-20 billion zlotys ($3.75-4 billion).
Nevertheless, the Polish authorities do not plan to send military troops to Ukraine, Tomczyk told the radio broadcaster.
