CIA director William Burns met with Polish President Andrzej Duda in Warsaw on March 15, according to the president's office.
The main focus of their talk was the current security situation, the president's office noted.
Burns' visit coincides with the Polish media reporting that a Russian spy network likely collecting intel on transfer points for weapons destined for Ukraine was dismantled.
Authorities detained 6 suspects after the discovered "dozens" of hidden cameras at railway junctions, the airport, and other important routes that recorded and transmitted vehicle movements.

Amid an ongoing Russian offensive, Ukraine has liberated a village in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, the Ukrainian open-source mapping project DeepState and Ukraine's military reported.
In the latest episode of Ukraine This Week, the Kyiv Independent’s Anna Belokur reports on another failed round of U.S.-Russia diplomacy over a controversial peace plan, as Moscow presses ahead on the battlefield and advances in and near Pokrovsk.
“There are no pauses, no delays in (Russia's) operations. They keep pushing their troops forward to seize as much of our territory as possible under the cover of negotiations," Syrskyi said.
Territorial concessions and security guarantees were among the most sensitive issues in President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recent call with U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, sources told Axios.
Russia failed to break Ukraine’s army on the battlefield, and now it’s trying to do it through a peace plan that would cap Ukraine’s forces at 600,000. Some argue that Ukraine would shrink its army — currently estimated at about 800,000 — after the war anyway.
