Poland's President Andrzej Duda issues new statement in wake of criticism of his words about Crimea.

He noted that historically, Crimea was in Russia's hands for most of the time. However, he believed that Ukraine would regain Donetsk and Lugansk, the two republics that broke away from Ukraine in 2014 and joined Russia. The remarks received backlash from both Polish and Ukrainian politicians.
