The Prime Minister will join fellow leaders in Moldova for a meeting of the European Political Community, where he is expected to stress the need to address the issue. Mr Sunak, who will meet with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki on Thursday, is also expected to announce an increase in bilateral intelligence sharing with Bulgaria to crackdown on criminal gangs involved in illegal migration. From (Russian President Vladimir) Putin’s utter contempt of other countries’ sovereignty to the rise in organised immigration crime across our continent,” Mr Sunak said. In every meeting, every summit, every international gathering like this, the security of our borders must be top of the agenda. Support for Ukraine and Moldova in the face of Russian aggression is likely to be on the agenda, with Mr Sunak and Mr Morawiecki set to hold a roundtable discussion on security at the summit.
